Summary "The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 66: James" is a religious text attributed to St. James the Apostle, known for its moral teachings and guidance for Christian living. This epistle, part of the New Testament, was likely penned in the early Christian era, a time frame occurring shortly after the life and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The text focuses on practical aspects of faith, highlighting the significance of good works, the dangers of favoritism, and the virtues of patience and humility. In the epistle, St. James addresses various community issues, urging believers to remain steadfast in their trials and to manifest their faith through actions. He emphasizes that true faith is alive and demonstrated through good works, arguing against the notion that belief alone is sufficient for salvation. St. James discusses the importance of controlling one's speech, warns against the seeking of wealth, and underscores the need for compassion towards the less fortunate. The letter also includes teachings on prayer, confession, and communal support in times of distress, ultimately guiding the faithful toward a life characterized by integrity and service in accordance with divine principles.
