Chapter 4 of James’ letter continues the line of thinking we read in chapter 3. We observed in the last lesson the problem of worldly wisdom. Having bitter jealousy, envy, and selfish ambition reveals that we are following the wisdom of the world and not the wisdom of God. The result of worldly wisdom is disorder and every vile practice.Sermons Menu Toggle.

But such acts are rooted in a rejection of God as God. In looking around and seeing God’s invisible attributes in the creation, people are expected to seek after God. We should be motivated to learn about God, know his will, and worship him.God would raise his nation back to life, though it was dead because of sins. Go back to Romans 8:10-11 and notice that this is exactly what Paul teaches. The body is dead because of sins, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

Paul instructed, “ Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ ” (Ephesians 5:21). Peter said, “ Clothe yourselves with humility toward one another ” (1 Peter 5:5). Perhaps Paul explains this attitude the best in Philippians 2:3-4.Psalm 31 is another psalm of David that returns to the theme of God as a refuge.

Luke 15:1 tells us that tax collectors and sinners were coming to listen to Jesus teach. What a terrific outcome! Sinners and crooks are coming to listen to the teachings of Jesus. However, the Pharisees and the scribes were complaining.The Event (7:36-40) Luke presents us a great story in the life of Jesus. One of the Pharisees invites Jesus to come to his house and eat with him. The Pharisees were a religious sect within Judaism in the first century. They demanded strict adherence to the Law of Moses by their oral interpretations of the Law.The Faith To Stand (18:1-16) The chapter begins with a man named Obadiah.
