"James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting."(James 1:1)
The book of James is generally thought to be written by the half brother of the Lord Jesus. James who was the half brother of the Lord Jesus and his brothers did not believe that Jesus is the Lord. But after the death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus, James believed that Jesus is the Lord and became the leader of the church in Jerusalem, even claimed himself to be the servant of the Lord Jesus.
When he wrote the book of James to the scattered Jews abroad, he claimed to be a servant of the Lord Jesus even though He is his half brother. The reason for claiming to be a servant of the Lord Jesus is that he believed Jesus is the Lord. He no longer looked at Jesus as his half brother. The powerful Word of God convinced him to humbly claim himself to be the servant of the Lord Jesus who was his half brother. Imagine, would James claim himself to be the servant of the Lord Jesus without convincing that Jesus is the Lord. The powerful Word of God changed the life of James up-side-down.
The powerful Word of God can change your life too like that of James!
Thanks for coming and God bless you!
