Last time I checked it was still in the Lutheran Bible as being part of the Canon

You are funny! :)

Luther's followers brought it back, but the historical fact is that Luther had no respect for this Apostolic work.

No, to return to the freedom that God has given us

Wrong again! Historical fact is that Luther uttered the words pecca fortiter (sin boldly), assuring his "divines" that as long as they love God, He will forgive them all their sins, hence he said that which many wish he hadn't.

The historical fact is that Luther's translation had James in it as part of the Canon (unlike the Apocrypha books which he knew were not part of the Canon)

And what does that have to do with Justification by faith?

God deals with those who abuse freedom,(Gal.6:7-8) but the freedom is, nevertheless real.
