James calls the believers who have been scattered because of persecution to receive the word. In order to receive the word, believers must put off the moral filth of this world and the sin we all struggle against on a regular basis. The only way to continually put off impurity and sin is by receiving the Word!

James, the brother of Jesus, writes to Jewish believers who have been scattered, likely because of persecution. James encourages these believers through instruction on trials, genuine faith, and the appropriate interactions within the community of believers. His goal is to give guidance to these believers as they continue to engage with one another apart from the oversight of the established church in Jerusalem.
