    Eisegesis in James 2:26

    James 2:26, "For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also."

    Those who would try real hard to supplant this clear statement with their own talk of faith being "alive" without works are denying God's Word by committing eisegesis upon Scripture. Such persons must repent and be transformed by God's Word, rather than trying to transform God's Word with their imagination.

    Whoever has read this verse above is now accountable to God for what it says. God have mercy.

    You should do a search and see what we think of James.
    Isaiah 45:7: I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

    Here is my exegesis on this verse. http://www.predestinarian.net/blog.php?b=214
    The gospel is to be preached indiscriminately to the elect and to the reprobate: but the elect alone come to Christ, because they have been taught of God. - John Calvin

    Ditch the Garbage! - Too many people are proud of their humility - I, on the other hand, am not humble - and am proud of it!

    "Luther's New Testament was so much multiplied and spread by printers that even tailors and shoemakers, yea, even women and ignorant persons who had accepted this new Lutheran gospel, and could read a little German, studied it with the greatest avidity as the fountain of all truth. Some committed it to memory, and carried it about in their bosom. In a few months such people deemed themselves so learned that they were not ashamed to dispute about faith and the gospel not only with Catholic laymen, but even with priests and monks and doctors of divinity." - A complaint by German humanist Johann Cochlaeus.
