James 1:21 instructs us to receive the truth and teaching of God's Word with meekness of heart. In so doing, this verse describes God's Holy Word as “the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.” In fact, throughout James 1:18-25 we find a series of descriptions concerning God's Word that reveal the wondrous treasure that the Lord our God has granted unto us in giving us His Holy Word.
