James 2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.

English “believest” and “believe” emboldened in James 2:19 were translated from Greek verb 4100 pisteuo. Greek verb 4100 pisteuo “to believe” and Greek feminine noun 4102 pistis “faith” are predicates of Greek verb 3982 peitho subjectively meaning to persuade and objectively means to be persuaded. If anyone other than God performs the action of Greek verb 3982 peitho their grammatical objects are not faithful to God and their belief and faith become immaterial to God. The grammatical subject who performs the action of Greek verb 3982 peitho persuades their grammatical objects to believe and have faith in whatever their grammatical subject wants them to believe and have faith in. Greek verb 3982 peitho was translated into English “persuaded” in Matthew 27:20 “But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus”. The “chief priests” and church “elders” were the grammatical subjects who “persuaded” their grammatical objects “the multitude” to “destroy Jesus”. The bible makes it clear that flesh human beings routinely persuade their grammatical objects to believe and have faith in flesh grammatical subjects with flesh thoughts and feelings contradicting God’s spiritual truth rendering their grammatical object’s belief and faith of no use to God. The world’s 4,351 religions use faith as a cudgel to deter questions regarding religious dogma and doctrine which God is eager to answer. The “faith” of God’s “seven thousand” “election” is subsequent to and commensurate with God’s faith in them pursuant to God’s will, well defined in the English words of Ephesians 1:10 and 1Timothy 2:3-4.

English “by” emboldened in James 2:18 was translated from Greek primary preposition 1537 ek denoting the origin from whence something came. God is the sole source of every spiritual thing ingested by God’s “seven thousand” “election” among whom are the apostles and original writers of the spiritual New Testament/covenant/contract with God. The eleventh chapter of Hebrews’ bible heroes flesh Old Testament/covenant/contract are not among God’s “seven thousand” “election”. “But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified”. God has given his  “seven thousand” “election” a heavy burden to bear. Fortunately, God’s “election” understand Ephesians 1:10 and 1Timothy 2:3-6 Hebrews 11:39-40 understanding “us” are “seven thousand” “election” and Romans 11:25-32 understanding that “Deliverer” in Romans 11:26 is in fact plural “seven thousand” “election” as documented in Romans 11:4-7 and 28. Also understanding that English “gifts” in Romans 11:29 was mistranslated from Greek neuter noun 5486 charisma that is in fact God’s permanent endowment of God’s Spirit as opposed to Greek feminine noun 5485 charis that is the temporary bestowment of God’s Spirit. Greek neuter noun 5486 charisma was also mistranslated into “gifts” in 1Corinthians 12:31 “But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way” understanding that “best” was translated from Greek adjective 2909 kreitton that was translated into English “better than” in Hebrews 1:4 “Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they”.

James 2:18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.

English “Yea” emboldened in James 2:18 was mistranslated from Greek conjunction 235 alla whereby God warns us of the contradiction between “faith without thy works” and “faith by my works”. Greek conjunction 235 alla was 573 times better translated into English “but” as exemplified by Matthew 4:4 “But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God”. Whereby God is showing us the contradiction between flesh physical bread and the spiritual bread of life of John 6:32-64 understanding the recurring “the last day” of John 6:39, 40, 44 and 54 is the “thousand years” of  2Peter 3:8 in the context of 2Peter 3:3-18 understanding that “as” in the phrase “one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day” in 2Peter 3:8 was translated from Greek adverb 5613 hos that God defined for us previously in God’s Love Is Antithetical To False Narrative Hell post. The “thousand years” of  2Peter 3:8 is also the “thousand years” of Psalm 90:4 and Revelation 20:4, 5 and 6 as well as “the Lord’s day” of Revelation 1:10 “day of the Lord” of Acts 2:20 1Corinthians 5:5  2Corinthians 1:14  1Thessalonians 5:2 and 2Peter 3:10 and “the day of God” of 2Peter 3:12-13.

English “being alone” emboldened in James 2:17 was loosely translated from Greek preposition 2596 kata and Greek reflexive pronoun 1438 heautou respectively. Greek preposition 2596 kata means down in the genitive case as grammatical objects are down from their grammatical subject. Greek preposition 2596 kata was 107 times reasonably translated into English “according to” because the grammatical object’s flesh thoughts and feelings are “according to” their flesh grammatical subject’s flesh thoughts and feelings during this earth age. The spiritual thoughts and ways of “seven thousand” “election” are down from “according to” God’s spiritual thoughts and ways. Greek reflexive pronoun 1438 heautou that refers to Greek neuter noun 2041 ergon that was translated into English “works” in the context of “hath not works” in the sense of not doing God’s works but rather doing the works of one’s self or one’s flesh grammatical subject.

English “if” emboldened in James 2:17 was translated from Greek conjunction 1437 ean. English conditional “If” appears 1,595 times in the King James Bible. The world’s 4,351 religions like to claim all of God’s promises while simultaneously ignoring God’s 1,595 conditional “If” s.

James 2:16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?

English “profit” emboldened in James 2:16 was translated from Greek neuter noun 3786 ophelos. In order to follow God’s 2Timothy 2:15, 19-21 directive we need to study every word in each verse containing Greek masculine noun 3781 opheiletes Greek feminine noun 3782 opheile Greek neuter noun 3783 opheilema Greek verb 3784 opheilo it’s past tense Greek particle 3785 ophelon Greek neuter noun 3786 ophelos Greek feminine noun 5622 opheleia Greek verb 5623 opheleo and Greek adjective 5624 ophelimos which is from Greek neuter noun 3786 ophelos. The aforementioned 9 Greek words are all subsequent to the debt we owe relative to the price God paid for us on a Roman cross. Each word associated with profitability is pursuant to paying our debt by doing God’s will that God defined for us in Joel 2:28-32 Luke 3:6 Romans 11:26-32 Romans 14:10-13 John 1:9 Acts 24:15  2 Peter 3:9 Romans 8:19-21 Ephesians 1:10 and 1Timothy 2:3-4.

God is now defining Greek neuter noun 5480 charagma that was translated into “graven” preceding “by art and man’s device” recalling that “device” was translated from Greek feminine noun 1761 enthumesis whereby God previously debunked the false narrative hell. OK hang on tight. Greek neuter noun 5480 charagma was also translated into English “mark” in Revelation 13:16, 13:17, 14:9, 14:11, 15:2, 16:2, 19:20 and 20:4 remembering that English “man’s” emboldened in Acts 17:29 was translated from Greek noun 444 anthropos meaning human beings, either female or male. The “beast” of Revelation 13:15, 13:17, 14:9, 14:11, 15:2, 16:2, 19:20 and 20:4 are flesh thoughts and feelings of more than 8 billion human beings during this earth age and their “mark” is the false narrative and locative noun hell. Remember what God said in Isaiah 66:4 “I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not”. Incidentally, “naked, and destitute of daily food” in James 2:15 is spiritual as documented in Revelation 3:18 “I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see”. Understanding that the church of the “Laodiceans” was translated from Greek proper masculine  noun 2994 laodikeus from Greek proper locative noun 2993 laodikeia from a compound of Greek masculine noun 2992 laos that was 143 times correctly translated into “people” best reflecting God’s definition in Matthew 15:7-9 Mark 7:6 Hebrews 8:7-13 1Peter 2:9-10 and Revelation 21:1-4 understanding that God’s “seven thousand” “election” are already citizens of “heavenly Jerusalem” of Hebrews 12:22 in the context of Hebrews 12:18-24. The second compound of Greek proper locative noun 2993 laodikeia is Greek feminine noun 1349 dike being right per God’s definition of right. There are 4,351 world religions precisely because they have 4,351 different definitions of right. I have not yet found any of them to be right per God’s definition of right pursuant to God’s will “That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him” “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour” “Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth”.
