  5. JAMES

  6. The Theme of the Letter • James 1:22 22  Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.

  7. Faith & Works • James 2:14-17 14  What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15  Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16  If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17  In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

  8. Tested Faith • James 1:2-5 2  Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3  because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4  Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5  If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.

  9. On Temptation • James 1:13-15 13  When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; 14  but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. 15  Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.

  10. Religion that God Accepts • James 1:26-27 26  Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. 27  Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

  11. On Favoritism • James 2:1-4 1  My brothers and sisters, believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ must not show favoritism. 2  Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in filthy old clothes also comes in. 3  If you show special attention to the man wearing fine clothes and say, “Here’s a good seat for you,” but say to the poor man, “You stand there” or “Sit on the floor by my feet,” 4  have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?

  12. On Keeping the Law • James 2:10 10  For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.

  13. On the Tongue • James 3:6 6  The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.

  14. On the Devil & Doing Good • James 4:7 7  Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. • James 4:17 17  If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.

  15. 1 Peter

  16. 1 PETER

  17. The Priesthood of the Believer • 1 Peter 2:9-10 9  But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. 10  Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

  18. On Suffering • 1 Peter 4:16 16  However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name. • 1 Peter 5:8-9 8  Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9  Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.

  19. An Inheritance that can never Perish • 1 Peter 1:3-9 3  Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4  and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, 5  who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time.

  20. An Inheritance that can never Perish • 1 Peter 1:3-9 6  In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. 7  These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. 8  Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, 9  for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

  21. Grow Up in Your Salvation • 1 Peter 2:2-3 2  Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, 3  now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.

  22. On Suffering • 1 Peter 2:21 21  To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps. • 1 Peter 3:15 15  But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, • 1 Peter 3:18 18  For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit.

  23. Be Faithful Stewards of Your Gifts • 1 Peter 4:10 10  Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.

  24. 2 Peter

  25. 2 PETER

  26. Characteristics of a Godly Life • 2 Peter 1:3-8 3  His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. 4  Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. • 5  For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6  and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; 7  and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. 8  For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

  27. On the Inspiration of Scripture • 2 Peter 1:20-21 20  Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation of things. 21  For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

  28. On Jesus’ Return • 2 Peter 3:3-14 3  Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. 4  They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” 5  But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6  By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. 7  By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.

  29. On Jesus’ Return • 2 Peter 3:3-14 8  But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9  The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

  30. On Jesus’ Return • 2 Peter 3:3-14 10  But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare. 11  Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives 12  as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat.

  31. On Jesus’ Return • 2 Peter 3:3-14 13  But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells. 14  So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him.

  32. Jude

  34. Contend for the Faith! • Jude 1:3 3  Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt compelled to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to God’s holy people.

  35. Walk the Walk! • Jude 1:20-21 20  But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, 21  keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.

  36. God will keep you from Falling! • Jude 1:24-25 24  To him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy— 25  to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.
