The Gospel Call and Conversion Theology of James

The half-brother of Jesus issues a gospel call to his unconverted and unregenerate listeners who are marked by sinful and unrepentant behavior in James 4:7-10. James gives ten aorist imperatives which are not only a gospel call but are also characteristics of saving faith. This book will exposit these verses and demonstrate that James possessed deep theology on conversion which was manifestly influenced by Jesus Christ. This book will conclude with a warning from James on becoming teachers in the church, demonstrating that those who teach sacramental conversion and salvation should take heed and be humbled before the Lord.
