It is a powerful vehicle for truth because it demands that we think.
James’s point, then, is that believers must look beyond the world’s evaluation to understand who they are
As a believers we must look beyond the world’s assessment to understand who you are in Christ.
The world says your value is in what you have.
The world says without money you are a nobody.
Willie Sutton a notorious bak robber was being interviewed and was ask why he had robbed so many banks.

They’ve come to God for charity.

“Because, That’s where the money is.”
You can depend on it to get us through difficult times.
Will I count it all joy when there’s nothing in the bank to count?
When I have more than enough will Christ still be my source of abundant life?
