DISCIPLINE
Paul continues on his earlier theme of accepting the poor as equals of the wealthy by going one step further. We not only accept them, we help in meeting their needs. It is not just a mental assent or agreement to their human value, it goes beyond that to really making a difference in their situation. It is not enough to care about them being hungry, you need to feed them.
We might say that faith without works is not really faith at all, because faith always has an impact in people's lives.
What are the things you think God is calling you to do to put your faith into action?

About this Plan
For James, Christians (that is, followers of his half-brother) should reflect the character of their God. And what we find in this letter is not works and more works as sometimes thought to be. On the contrary it is a letter infused by God’s character, with the intention of making God-shaped people living in the world.
