These verses answer questions like— Where does conflict come from? How big of a deal is it? How does God respond to us in our conflicts?

It shows up in jealousy and selfish ambition. And over time, it produces bad fruit in our lives. Biblical wisdom, on the other hand, is from above, from God. It produces meekness in our hearts that expresses itself in good conduct. And it produces a harvest of righteousness.

And yet, so often, our speech reveals that we have a divided heart. But the gospel gives us hope! Because Jesus died for our sins of speech, like every other sin, we can begin to put off our old way of speaking to and we can begin to honor the Lord and others with what we say.

Showing partiality contradicts God's character, ways, law, and judgment. If we are going to live wholehearted lives like James desires, we must reject partiality as well.

In this passage, James commands us not to do that, and he explains why we shouldn't temptations do not come from God. Quite the contrary, they originate with us. The unchanging God, on the other hand, only ever gives good gifts, the best of which is our salvation. Keeping these realities before us will enable us to remain faithful and steadfast under trial.

After offering basic instruction on how to respond to trials in general in James 1:2-8, James now addresses a specific trial or test that his readers are facing. Some are impoverished and others are rich. Though it may not appear this way on the surface, both of these conditions— adversity and prosperity— provide unique temptations. As a result, they must be treated with unique solutions. In James 1:9-12, James informs each group as to how they are to navigate their situation. And he offers wonderful motivation to the one who remains steadfast in his trial.

James, the half-brother of Jesus wrote to Jewish Christians scattered across the Roman Empire to instruct them how to handle the trials that they were facing.
