'''Epistle of James''' refers to the writings of James, son of Alpheus, the [[Bishop]] of [[Jerusalem]], the [[Lord]]'s brother and one of the 12 Apostles. The early Universal Church years, much of his work was disputed as to authenticity and scattered among churches. From the end of the third century its acceptance as inspired, canonical and as the work of St. James clearly appears from the various lists of the Sacred books drawn up since the fourth century.

== Martin Luther ==
Luther strongly repudiated the Epistle as "a letter of straw", and "unworthy of the apostolic Spirit", and this solely for dogmatic reasons, and owing to his preconceived notions, for the epistle refutes his heretical doctrine that Faith alone is necessary for salvation.
