Be Mature (James): Growing Up in Christ

A pastor recommended Warren W. Wiersbe to me who said that anything by Pastor Wiersbe is worth it. I agree. I acquired "Be Right" and wanted to acquire all the "BE" series but settled for his Expository Commentary. I do not regret purchasing the Commentary. Not being at home, and wanting a copy for a bible discussion group on the book of James, I bought "Be Mature". If you do not have other commentaries on James by John Calvin, Thomas Manton (an excellent commentary) or Charles Haddon Spurgeon, settle for Wiersbe. It is well organized, readable and has a good amount of practical insights for a believer. "While still an unbeliever, James must have paid attention to what Jesus taught" in the Sermon on the Mount (p. 21). A reader of "Be Mature" will pay attention to James and what Jesus taught.There is one part of the book (pp. 25-28) entitled "How Can We Get The Most Out of This Study?" It will remind one of the need to be born again, be honest as we examine our lives, to be obedient and be prepared FOR EXTRA TRIALS AND TESTINGS. We are to bend to the Word where our experiences, opinions and views are concerned. "We must measure our spiritual growth by the Word of God".(p. 27) That is a sign of maturity.I highly recommend this book for your study of the Word.

Pastor Wiersbe’s books always shed light and add to my Bible studies. He is dependable, truthful and speaks to be understood. Always a good Bible study resource.

Warren Wiersbe does it again! This book is phenomenal. It doesn't have a ton of fluff or irrelevant side stories. It gets DEEP and sticks to scripture. I have felt my relationship with God flourishing while reading this. I can't recommend it enough. I will definitely be looking into buying more of his books.

Love Warren Weirsbe. Easy to understand for growing Christians.

Perfect

Good for group Bible Study; can be used individually. True to the Scriptures. Best to have your Bible handy so your study of the book of James is from the Scriptures; using BE MATURE only as a guide to deeper thinking..

Every Christian should read this. People claim to have such deep experiences in God but they’re actually spiritual babies with no responsibility. The book of James is a call to grow up in Christ and be mature in the Lord

Description was accurate and fast shipping.

A well written book on an important part of the Bible.

I appreciated the authors thought and interpretations of the book of James; which is my favourite book of the Bible. It is a well laid out study.

James is such a Practical Book that we need it for today's Daily Living.

Mr. Wiersbe is an excellent Bible commentator and I thoroughly enjoy his writings.

James' epistle is really quite short at just five chapters. Nevertheless it's packed with practical advice on Christian living. Wiersbe, as usual, takes the Word and explains, expands and challenges. I have been given much food for thought and encouragement for action by this excellent, easy-to-read commentary.
