I am making my second pass through Dr. Moo's commentary on James, and I think his scholarship is unique in today's history of the Church. I find Dr. Doug to be extremely open to the reality of his finite nature, refusing to be stubbornly correct in regards his opinions. Maybe I see a calm humility despite his evident hard work. Yet, he maintains a steadfastness to hold the Biblical line. And, to add to my high regard of this brother, he genuinely seems to have a living faith, honestly concerned about a God to whom he must give account.
I think his faith was brought to completion in a way that it was manifested to be true , to be complete, not lacking in parts but one that is acceptable and pleasing to God, through the works. Thus faith is completed, perfected by works i.e. makes whole and not lacking
Like taking a class... blessed!
Insightful and very inspirational
