Testing Your Faith

1 ^[a](A)James, a ^(B)slave of God and ^(C)of the Lord Jesus Christ,

To ^(D)the twelve tribes who are in the ^(E)Dispersion: ^(F)Greetings.

¹⁰ If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, ^(A)do not receive him into your house, and do not give him a greeting, ¹¹ for the one who gives him a greeting ^[a](B)participates in his evil deeds.

^12 (C)Though I have many things to write to you, I do not want to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, so that ^[b]your ^(D)joy may be made complete.

¹³ The children of your ^(E)elect sister greet you.
