(Summary of sermon by Rev Erlo Stegen)
James 1:25
But he who looks carefully into the faultless law, the [law] of liberty, and is
faithful to it and perseveres in looking into it, being not a heedless listener who
forgets but an active doer [who obeys], he shall be blessed in his doing (his life of
obedience). Amplified Bible - from www.biblegateway.com
- Blessedness - The Greek word, makarios, used in this verse, means
to be "supremely blessed". The Afrikaans translates this word in other places as
"welgeluksalig", which means to be three times blessed. Such a person has life
joy, is satisfied and is to be envied.
- This verse gives the secret of obtaining such blessedness. You must
study and go deep into God's perfect law of liberty, and persevere in it. You must
meditate on God's Word, and obey His Word.
- God's Word must be our compass for direction. Never go according to
your own feelings, but let His Word guide you.
