The book of James has enjoyed immense popularity throughout the centuries in spite of the fact that there are many aspects of the epistle that are disputed by Biblical scholars: who wrote the book, when it was written, and whether or not there is any theological unity.
The letter to James' church was designed to shake the people out of the lethargy they were living in; he writes because he is concerned about their spiritual health and the worldliness they are beginning to sink into.
James teaches that once the relationship with God is established and the believer is accepted into the community of Christ, there must be not only an internal relationship but an external aspect as well.
