Michael Pearl teaches through the book of James, verse by verse.

James says a man is “justified by works and not by faith only.” Paul says, “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us...” Is this a contradiction? Not on your life—your eternal life. It is time to believe the book of James as it is written.

This verse-by-verse study explores the subject of justification. Learn how you can justify God, and justify yourself, after God has justified you from all things.

Referring to the book of James, Martin Luther, the somewhat reformed Roman Catholic, called it “an epistle of straw, ” and said that someday he would light his fires with it. Well, on the contrary, it lit my fire recently as I taught it. It is a book that troubles the light Bible student. “Faith without works is dead...so then ye see how a man is justified by works and not by faith only.”

This wonderful book is the perfect companion to the book of Romans. Order it while you are thinking about it...you know how easy it is to forget! It is a must hear.
