James 1:1 – Bond-servants Not Best Buddies
Bond-servants. We are, to use a word common in many translations, bond-servants. Contrary to the way we sometimes act, this does not mean we have such a close bond with Jesus as best buddies. It means slave, one who has given up his will to another. So maybe we should give up the visuals of running up to and hugging Jesus in Heaven, because we will be found bowing at His feet (Phil.2:10). Best we start bowing now.
