James addresses the universal problem of controlling our speech in James 3:1-12. Since speech is one of the most popular ways people sin against God, the Bible has a lot to say about what we say. Though we might not think about it often, our tongue is a powerful tool. With it we can sin against God and hurt our brethren, or we can glorify God and lift each other up.

In the book of James, workless faith is described as useless and dead. God desires us to have faith and to take Him at His word, but it can’t stop there. If God’s people are to truly glorify God, they must show their faith by their works. Why do works need to be coupled with faith?

Serious enough that the Holy Spirit spent quite a few verses addressing it in James 2:1-13. We might not think that partiality is on par with sins like adultery and murder, but James reminds us how seriously God takes us conforming to His image. If we hold our faith in the Lord of Glory we must do so without partiality, but what does that look like?
