James 1:6 NASB  But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. (7)  For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord, (8) being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

Matthew 6:29 NASB  yet I say to you that not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these.

James 1:11 NASB  For the sun rises with a scorching wind and withers the grass; and its flower falls off and the beauty of its appearance is destroyed; so too the rich man in the midst of his pursuits will fade away.

Matthew 5:10-12 NASB  “Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.  (11)  “Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.  (12)  “Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Matthew 5:14-16 NASB  “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden;  (15)  nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.  (16)  “Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

Matthew 5:45 NASB  so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

Matthew 7:9-11 NASB  “Or what man is there among you who, when his son asks for a loaf, will give him a stone?  (10)  “Or if he asks for a fish, he will not give him a snake, will he?  (11)  “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask Him!

James 1:17 NASB  Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.

Matthew 7:16-20 NASB  “You will know them by their fruits.

Matthew 5:22 NASB  “But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, ‘You good-for-nothing,’ shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell.

Matthew 7:16-20 NASB  “You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they?  (17)  “So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit.  (18)  “A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit.  (19)  “Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.  (20)  “So then, you will know them by their fruits.

James 5:2 NASB  Your riches have rotted and your garments have become moth-eaten. (3) Your gold and your silver have rusted; and their rust will be a witness against you and will consume your flesh like fire. It is in the last days that you have stored up your treasure!

James 5:12 NASB  But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath; but your yes is to be yes, and your no, no, so that you may not fall under judgment.
