Beskrivelse
James the Just, the brother of Jesus, wrote his letter to Jewish believers to encourage them to endure and bold embody a faith that transforms lives. For James, actions count far more than mere words or beliefs. Peter addresses personal holiness as God's people, even during times of suffering and persecution, teaching that all Christians are to expect suffering, even imprisonment and death. Peter explains that our salvation in Christ is secure, "for by His wounds you were healed." John faces the threat of false teachings, including the denial that Jesus had a genuine human body. Discernment is necessary to thwart the constant attacks of heresy for John, who also makes the assurance of salvation a key doctrine. Jude continues the thread of false or confused teachings entering the new Christian community. This is a companion to the Cherokee syllabary-only New Testament digitized and released in 2013. Translated into Cherokee in the nineteenth century under the direction of Revs. Samuel Worcester and Elias Boudinot, the Cherokee New Testament is the largest complex text composed in Cherokee by fluent speakers with command of a high level of the language. For generations, the New Testament has been used by Cherokees of all persuasions to learn to speak and write as their ancestors did. May our humble efforts be a blessing to you and your family.
