James 1:13–27 teaches that God is never the source of temptation; temptation arises from human desire and leads to sin and death. God, by contrast, is the unchanging giver of every good gift and brings new life through the word of truth. Believers are called to receive this implanted word with humility, responding not as mere hearers but as doers. True faith is demonstrated through obedient action, self-control, compassion toward the vulnerable, and moral purity from worldly corruption—this is what constitutes genuine religion before God.
