James Chapter 5 Discussion Page 4

Merlene, I am saying that the Bible says, ask and you shall receive, later in the Bible it says for those who are not receiving to examen themelves and what they are asking for. aswell(if it is right)then you also need to believe that it will happen when you ask for it. now God loves you and knows what is best, He says no, yes, or wait, God can and does use all things for His glory and for good.

Only an Apostolic, Jesus name (Pentecostal) church will anoint you with oil, and pray with you at the same time. No other churches believe in healing. And as Colossians 3:17 says, do ALL in the name of Jesus. If you want healing, the TITLES of father, son, and holy ghost, won't do it. God's word itself says - Jesus.

Merlene We take the word of God at its first value The oil is anointing oil If you do go to church do as the word of God says in verses 14-15 With God everything is possible just approach Him with your heart know that He is and He is the regarder of all those who deligently seek Him I want to boost your faith as you need a miracle It's the will of God to heal us Mark 10:46-52 Matt 8:1-3; 15:21-28

Marlene: Oil is that of The Holy Spirit. The Word of God, read a few more verses it's talking about being saved. Yes, I Believe there are Miracles! I read testimonies of other Believers. But not all Believers are healed? He brings Joy to The Saved while in their affliction. Soon it will end. We all will have New Bodies,He will wipe away all tears. No more pain. Forever with No End.Revelation21

Was there a special oil used for healing in James5:14?my son is a quadriplegic due to a car wreck caused by a 'texter' he should've already been walking but he never got the therapies he needed he need a miracle now

The word of God clearly state that we as children of life most high we should be mindful of the things that will keep us preserve from the riches and treasures of this life.nothing is wrong with having wealth but when we choose wealth over the things of God we are in trouble ,so let not set our hearts on things of this lif but instead focus on God.

God is so good he want us to open up our eyes. To see how good he is to us I really love the with all my heart.

Study His Word from Genesis to Revelation's show yourself approved. It is your safeguard so if others miss quote Scripter or print it wrong you will know. Stay near the Cross. Bring others with you.

God really loves us that's why he sent his Son Jesus Christ to us so that we can have life in abundance. God is merciful and faithful to his words. Our job now is to accept Jesus as the Son of the living God and obey his words and praise and worship him only. Thanks to the blood of Jesus always. Think and talk about his blood. Thank you Jesus for giving us unconditional love and peace. Amen

Very true, these words.

James assures me that the ways of the world, as unrighteous as they are and seeming to go on without being stopped are not the true reality. What is real is the way of God and He would like me to pay attention to this. Just to continue, by His grace, in His ways

It useful information, which helps one to know where to go in relationship: 1. With God 2. With our fellow human beings, with whom we are ever clashing forr seeing things differently from them.

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.

God is good he did not want any of us to perish

Verse 20 shows that we should be concerned about the faith of others and that we can help others to even save their relationship and lives with God if we help them turn back from their bad ways.

I think it's great for understanding the purpose and requirements of living as a Christian

I think James is reminding me how to live my life in ritiousness and be patient to receive my blessing as asked from God

I know God love us all n if we do what he tells us no blessing is too big or impossible I seen a homeless man? Yesterday n I had bout a loaf of bread n I kept saying I don't need the loaf I said I need to bless the man with it I did thank you so much God Bless us all

I LOVE this book have memorized all of it and been in 2studies of it. All total almost a year getting all I can out of it

God Is Great

I think James is one of the most powerful books of the Bible, it is a perfect example of how we are to be just like Jesus who never offended with his speech but so many of us do and in read- ing James I realize how careful we must be to watch what we say even when we think no one else can hear us.

james5:7-11 urges us to have the patience of Christ who has been patient with us. He will surely reward us at right time. If not now then at least in heaven.

Praise God

What I get out of this is if u are not sharp u could lose your salvation...God have mercy on us all...Praise God and to my brothers in Christ REPENT always..love u all

Yes. This is normal but the situation of Paul and Silas is different.They choose to sing instead of praying when they were afflicted.God will want us to go beyond this scripture and praise him in season and out of season. Shalom.

This chapter is basically telling us not to get hung up on the wrong doings and especially greed their is no good in this mean what you say and don't be switching up on your word this is not of GOD PRAY for one another and encourage each other with positiveness don't let negativeness over ride you confess your faults at all times it helps lift the burdens

I believe the KJV is correct here and the word used should have been faults. We are to confess our sins to God and repent and he will forgive us because of the finished work of Christ on Calvary. But if we do a wrong to a brother or sister in Christ, we should also go to them and admit our wrongdoing faults and try to restore our relationship with that believer. We should also be willing to humble ourselves and admit our faults to one another...but confess your sins to God, who is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins!

God forgives sins. A fault is some personal thorn in us. The person who is tangled in such needs help. But the help must be carefully chosen. The fervent prayer of the righteous avails much. The eyes of the Lord are over the righteous and His ears are open to their prayers. comp. 1 Pet. 3:12 .

The Bible makes things real simple, but sometimes we have to make it complicated. Jehovah God encourages us to be truthful, and direct. Imagine how easier life would be if we were direct instead of all this indirect, passive aggressive behavior so common today. Also, Yes I do agree with you Mike, If your yes is yes, and no is no, then what more do we need to swear on something?

Our God is forgiving God. If we repent ourselves and Sin No More, God already forget our Sins as he will never condemned us. God 's love is unmeasurable love, his mercies endureth forever. For God is love we must obey his commandments to love one another as he loves us. Thanks to Jesus for his precious blood that shed for us. Because of our Fathers love we are saved and have life in abundance. Thanks be to God.. Amen
