The things that are not considered God's speaking in the book of James are very specific and they have to do with keeping the law. James apparently held a view that Christians must keep the law.

James said, "whoever keeps the whole law, yet stumbles in one point, has become guilty of all." (2.10)

That doesn't sound like an exhortation that Christians must keep the law. In fact, it sounds like the opposite.

Please come down to earth and provide some scripture to support your view.
