Life is the form of existence that distinguishes organic from inorganic substances. It has been defined by scientists as the characteristic state of being that is not dead. It is the period during which someone remains active and effective.
The Book of James is regarded as both practical and ethical. James wrote it to emphasise duty over doctrine and to rebuke the shameful neglect of certain Christian responsibilities. He focuses solely on the characteristics of worldliness and the sin of presumption-the belief that you, rather than God, are in control of the circumstances of life. He likens this attitude to boasting.
