The Grass Also Withers - Commentary of the Book of James - Vol. 23

D. Earl Cripe, Ph.D (1934-2011) held firmly to Historic Orthodox Christian Theology that the Bible is the only guide to the faith and practice of the Church. Towards that end during his more than forty-seven years of ministry he penned numerous volumes of expository Bible commentaries. In them he takes the reader verse-by-verse through the chosen book of the Bible, explaining the original meanings and intentions along with the applications to the life of the serious believer of Christ in simple language that anyone can grasp. They are essential reading for the serious Christian looking to further their understanding of the Holy Scriptures.This volume is a verse-by-verse study of the Book of James. Jesus called St. James "Bonargies" (A Son of Thunder). Those who have studied the means and the purpose of grace as it applies to sanctification and the Christian church are fully aware that this is a sober business for which a just accounting will be required in the Day of Judgment. Many people have found James' words to be harsh and abrasive. We do not agree. James thunders down, with the great articulation and passion, truth that desperately needs to be heard and understood by the church of our day.
