James 1:26

26 If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man's religion is worthless.

James 3:14

14 But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, do not be arrogant and so lie against the truth.

James 4:8

8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

James 5:5

5 You have lived luxuriously on the earth and led a life of wanton pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.

James 5:8

8 You too be patient; strengthen your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is near.
