Reformed Bible Study Series - The Book of James – 研經系列 － 雅各書 [paperback] Luke P.Y. Lu [Jan 01, 2020]

The Book of James is known as the "Proverbs of the New Testament," intricately discussing the practice of the life of faith and true wisdom, and can be considered the guide to living in God's covenant. Its main purpose is to illustrate that a Christian's faith and life are two sides of the same entity, where true faith in one's life inevitably bears the fruit of good deeds. The core theme of the teaching of the Book of James is 'wisdom from above and true holiness' is indispensable, admonishing us in our thoughts, words, and actions to correct us, instruct us in righteousness, and practice and exercise holiness in our lives. For believers who value intellectual belief or emotional experience but neglect the testimony of one's actions in life, the Book of James is a targeted and fundamental remedy for the root causes of these errors. Every word and sentence in James is powerful and incisive, leaving a deep To know is to do! Do not merely listen to the word! This book provides concise and precise exegesis of the original text, detailing sound doctrine, godly living, and situational application. After the introduction, the content is divided into thirty lessons, organized by section, examined verse-by-verse, with each lesson including discussion questions. The goal is to help believers carefully study the essence of the Book of James, and is suitable for individual daily study and meditation, family devotional sharing, fellowship group Bible studies, and Sunday school courses." 雅各書被稱為新約的箴言，內容詳論信仰生活的實踐，和真實的智慧，可說是聖約生活的指南。其主旨在說明基督徒的信仰與生活是一體的兩面，真信心必定在生活中結出好行為的果子。我們得救是本乎恩，也因著信，這並不是出於行為，乃是出於神；然而得救之後必定結出行為的果子。 雅各書核心主題是「屬天的智慧，真實的敬虔」，在心思、言語、行為各方面，教訓督責我們，使我們歸正，教導我們學義，對於我們的生活實行與操練敬虔，是不可或缺的。 雅各書再三強調：基督信仰的特徵，不是講道理而已，更是走道路，實踐遵行福音真理。對於看重頭腦理性或情緒感性、卻忽略生活行為見證的信徒 而言，雅各書是對症下藥的治本良方。雅各書每字每句鏗鏘有力，字字針砭且刻骨銘心。 知道就要行道!不要單單聽道! 本書以精簡扼要的原文釋經，詳述純正教義、敬虔生活、處境應用，以導論起始，內容分為三十課，按題 分段，逐節查考，每課皆有問題討論，旨在幫助信徒仔細研讀《雅各書》精義，適合個人每日研讀默想、家庭靈修分享、團契小組查經、主日學課程。
