False true False

Explanation:

The epistle written by James highlights the importance of faith in the lives of Christians, but it does not place it as the most important thing in the lives of followers of Christ. That's because for James, having faith without doing works was useless. James' epistle states that for God, faith is dead if no work is done.

Dicernir means to perceive, differentiate and distinguish. In other words, we can say that the word "discern" means to see the difference and make a distinction.

John wrote his second epistle to the elected lady as a warning for her and her children to stay away from false teachers who do not recognize Jesus as the true messiah.
