In many ways, James is the forgotten epistle of the New Testament. Throughout church history the Epistle of James has encountered struggle, opposition and just plain neglect. In the period of the early church, it struggled to receive full acceptance in the canon of Scripture. At the time of the Reformation, it faced fierce opposition, particularly from the great Reformer Martin Luther. Luther dismissed the epistle outright, referring to it as an epistle of straw. Luther also charged that James mangles the Scriptures and thereby opposes Paul and all Scripture. In our modern age, James has suffered from both lay and scholarly neglect. When it comes to the New Testament epistles, the writings of Paul, Peter and John garner most of the attention. James and his epistle have been largely ignored and neglected throughout history. This is unfortunate, because it has much to say to us particularly regarding the crucial subject of the Christian life. Perhaps no other letter in the New Testament so comprehensively addresses the Christian life as does the Epistle of James. It is the purpose of this book to explore the Christian life through the panoramic lens of this grand epistle.

A Commentary on the Book of James in the New Testament is not just your typical Commentary on the Book of James. Because it gives reader a refreshing scholarly, practical, and in-depth look into having godly behavior and obedience to the Word of God in such times like these, in the twenty-first century. James is writing a letter to the early Christian (Jewish Christian) about putting their faith into action. This commentary lets the reader see a verse-to-verse breakdown of the Word of God from the book of James to let it readers know that blessed is the man or woman who perseveres under trials, for they shall receive the crown of life (James 1:12). To those who persevere under trials, every trial we overcome helps us mature as Christians (James 2). In this Commentary on the Book of James in the New Testament, I tried to give human applications and illustrations to the reader. After each chapter to let the reader of this commentary--whomever is facing heartaches, trials, setbacks, drug abuse, sex abuse, having financial problems, health problems, mental issues, family and even marriage problems--know that God is the only one that can fix their problem or situation. You have to have faith in Almighty God. He is the only one that can get us out of the mess or situation or fix the circumstances that we face as Christians. We know as Christians that the book of James says God is not the author of evil. James says, "Show me Your Faith and I will show you my Faith by my works" (James 2:18). Work goes hand in hand with faith as we do our part on this Christian journey. God is our helper. This Commentary on the Book of James in the New Testament, I hope will inspire you after you have picked it up, read it, and know that you have to do your part, which is to pray and then step out in faith and get off the couch from your comfort zone to do whatever you need to do on your part regarding the circumstance God will help. I'm a witness! We serve a prayer-answering God. James 1:4 says, "But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing." And, reader, if you haven't confessed the Lord Jesus as your Savior, say a prayer of faith today. Say, "Jesus save me. I believe You died for my sins. Come into my heart today. Amen." Romans 10:9 says that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
