James Chapter 1

It was great to see everyone on Tuesday and get to know you all a little better. I'm looking forward to this summer's group! Below you will find some study questions to guide you through Chapter 1 of James. We will go over some or all of the questions and any other comments, obeservations, or applications you may come up with.

1. How do you normally feel and respond when you have to face a trial?


2. In the middle of discussing trials, James mentions wisdom(1:5). What does wisdom have to do with facing trials? Why should we pray for wisdom, not just perserverance?


3.How can you cooperate with God in accomplishing the purposes for which He is allowing this trial (1:3-4)?


4. James 1:8 What does it mean to be double-minded?


5. Have you ever felt that God was putting you into temptation? If so, what gave you that impression? (James 1:9-18)


6. Why doesn't human anger bring about the righteouness that God desires (James1:20)? What is often wrong with our anger?


7.How is a man who hears without doing like a man who looks in a mirror and later forgets (1:23-24)?


Looking forward to seeing you all next week.

Have a great weekend!
