The Church in Earnest

Passionately, James, in the early 19th century, from the letters to the seven churches of Asia Minor, propounds the nature and necessity of earnest piety and pushes the church to pursue it. The Church in Earnest exhorts the church to see that its own internal spiritual condition is of primary importance. Personal effort to save souls, parental example, persevering prayer, and regular family devotion, industriously performed, are prerequisites to piety. Hindrances to earnestness in piety, as well as the means to increase the church’s earnestness to piety are emphasized! Awesome!
