About this listen

A verse-by-verse study of James 1:12-18.

James discusses two kinds of tests that all of us have to go through. Tests that come as the result of external circumstances are called trials; tests of character that take the form of inner desires are called temptations.

  • In verses 2–12, James discusses external trials and explains how they can help us become spiritually mature.
  • In verses 13–18, he turns his attention to the powerful inner urges that can destroy us and everyone we care about.
