Letter of James

Letter of JamesIn his Letter to the early Christian Church, James sets out some helpful instructions for living.

Pieter writes, “If this Letter was an essay, James would get a weak mark for structure: he raises all kinds of subjects in no particular order. I will deal with themes from the letter and not follow it completely.”
