The Test of Humility in Conflict
Oct 31, 2021Tap to summarizeJames previously addressed the power within the tongue to bring forth both blessings and curses. He continues by explaining that misuse of the tongue results in arrogance, jealousy, self centered desires and pride. Where selfish ambition lies, there enmity with God lies also. “Whoever wishes to be a friend of the world, makes himself an enemy of God.” Friendship with the world is empty in comparison to the fullness of Christ. We as believers must resist selfish ambition so that our faith would be authentic.

Oct 24, 2021Tap to summarizeWhere jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. But the wisdom from above is first pure , then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. A harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace. The legacy of those who bring peace is a harvest of righteousness. We as believers must seek wisdom from above so that our faith would be authentic.

Transcribe →The Test of Resisting Temptation
Sep 20, 2021Tap to summarizeJames diverges from the significance of joy in trials and addresses the process of temptation. God is the author of trials, not the author of temptation.
