Jacques 1:7

Listen to Jacques 1:7
7 Qu'un tel homme, en effet, ne s'attende pas Ă  recevoir quelque chose du Seigneur.

Jacques 1:7 Meaning and Commentary

James 1:7

For let not that man think
Imagine, conclude, or please himself with such thoughts,

that he shall receive anything from the Lord;
wisdom, or anything else, he is seeking after; for wanting faith, he has nothing to receive with; faith is the grace, which receives the Lord Jesus Christ himself, and all grace from him; which receives a justifying righteousness, pardon of sin, adoption of children, and even the everlasting inheritance, at least, the right unto it; wherefore those who have not faith, as the wavering man, cannot receive any thing.
