I’ll go to the Scriptures. Whose faith is being spoken of here? The faith of Christ.
Galatians 3
22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. Before whose faith came?
24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. The faith of Christ
25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. After whose faith is come?

Are you serious?? 
How about the entire Bible... that should be plenty of instruction.
I see nothing in that letter that would signify it is for a certain eschatological time period.
Can you give me a verse?

And Saul was there consenting to his killing. And on that day a great persecution arose against the church in Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria.

I could care less what commentaries say......the group addressed in JAMES was the JEWS scattered when Stephen was stoned to death and persecution was level'ed at the CHURCH In JERUSALEM which contained devout MEN (JEWS) from all 12 tribes and 17 different regions....USE your head man, and lose the commentaries and false notions....

Is the following Church doctrine?
James 5
14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
Not might save the sick, shall save the sick. Really? If we elders pray over the sick they will be healed every time? And their sins forgiven through someone else’s prayer? Signs and miracles back into play during the tribulation.

Paul watching Stephen being stoned and the IMMEDIATE persecution happen'ed in 36 A.D. GENIUS and JAMES was written (48-50) AFTER they were persecuted and scattered.........BUT would also APPLY to the JEWS scattered in 70 as well....
You can forget arguing JOHN....you are wrong....end of story...I can support my view by the above dates, by the use of the phrase THE FAITH of JESUS CHRIST our LORD, the TRIAL of YOUR FAITH and so on and so forth....YOU have nothing but supposition, and a view gleaned from commentaries.....
