The Book of James Lsn # 3, 'I’ve Got That Joy Down In My Heart' Part 1
There are three types of God has designed the spiritual life so that any and all believers can be great! What we do with
the mind of Christ (the written Word) today is exactly what we would have done with the Person
of Christ (the Living Word) had we been around and known of Him in the first century A.D.
Whether your head is in the clouds or down in the dumps related to your physical birth means
absolutely nothing in the spiritual realm. Human talent is not the basis for the Christian way of
life nor is it a means of advancement in it. Grace alone provides everything we need and it
excludes human talent in doing so. God has never learned anything because He’s always known
everything! It’s Satan who is the author of evil, not God. Evil is Satan’s modus operandi and it’s
a demented perversion of God’s grace. But if there is a good God, that means that there’s
meaning and purpose in every aspect of life to include our trials. Hope is not based on
speculation but rather, confident expectation in God Who sent His best for us and for that reason
we can absolutely expect that He will not forsake us especially in our darkest hour of suffering!
