Napsal(a) Jonathan S. Rose
Title: The Laver and Purification
Topic: Salvation
Summary: Before we are reborn, our outer self is a liability and a cause of problems. Afterwards it is an asset because it functions as a filter for purifying our spirit. This explains why we find so much junk in it sometimes!

James 1:19-24
19
So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;
20
for the anger of man doesn't produce the righteousness of God.
21
Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
22
But be doers of the word, and not only hearers, deluding your own selves.
23
For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man looking at his natural face in a mirror;
24
for he sees himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.
