Bible Question: Please explain James 1:2 |
Bible Answer: Hello miss ann and good morning. I go to this verse a lot. I dont know anyone thats happy when they are facing major challenges to there faith. But notice in the very next verse how James says that the testing of your faith produces endurance.(stedfastness)Even when things are hard we can still have joy. Read Romans 5:1-5 Paul tells us what we have because of our faith in Jesus Christ. We have peace with God. Paul tells us that we stand in Gods Grace. So no matter what may come our way,because we place our faith in Jesus Christ we can have joy we can have peace. God will not disappoint us. We dont have to let anything steal our joy.
