“Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!” This simple message was the call of Jesus as He preached during His ministry. The evidence of this is clearly seen in the New Testament writings of His disciples. James echoes this message clearly in this verse, calling on believers to repent, which literally means to turn around, change your ways, and go in the opposite direction.
James’ instruction to believers to “put away” sin shows that repentance is a continual action for the believer. Despite being Christ-followers and being indwelt with the Holy Spirit, residence in this fallen world necessitates repentance. Believers must continually repent of the “sin which so easily besets us” and purposefully follow Christ in obedience.
James knew there was only one way to be obedient. Believers must receive the implanted Word. It is the Word that reveals God, the Word that guides believers, the Word that shows humanity the will of God for their lives. Without the indwelling of the Word, there can be no conviction of sin, no dispensing of godly wisdom, and no hope of salvation.
