James & Jude

Teacher: Won Huh

  • This week we look at the letters written by the two brothers of Jesus - James & Jude.
  • We know from Paul’s letters that righteousness is by faith alone. In the Book of James, we’ll see how Christian behavior is related to righteousness by faith.
  • Do Paul and James contradict each other or complement each other? (Note: You’ll find what you set out to look for.)
  • Does faith automatically produce good fruit/behavior in the Christian or does it take some effort? What if it doesn’t show?
  • Is faith static or dynamic? Does it (need to) grow and mature? How does that happen?
  • Jude warns about the dangers of the false teachers. It looks like they did not get the memo from James.
  • What can you learn about God from the two brothers of Jesus?
