There are two events that we will examine in this lesson. The first is when some Pharisees warned Jesus that Herod wanted to kill Him. The second is a dinner Jesus attended at a prominent Pharisee’s home where the Lord healed a man with dropsy and taught on humility. There are some very challenging truths that will be dealt with in this study.
In this lesson we will examine the confrontation Jesus had with some Pharisees. The context of this dispute is in relation to the Pharisees’ legalistic ideas about the Sabbath. Jesus makes some remarkable claims that must have shaken those religious leaders. This is an interesting and thought provoking study.
In James 5:1-8 we will dig into the difficult subject of wealth and strive to understand what the Bible says on the subject. Don’t miss this one.
James 4:13-16 challenges our way of life in the 21st century. What James teaches shows us our great need to live according the God’s Word and not the Spirit of this world.
