Pericope: James 4: 1-6
Sermon
Text: James
4:1-6 4 What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your
desires that battle within you? 2 You desire but do not have, so you
kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You
do not have because you do not ask God. 3 When you ask, you do not receive,
because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on
your pleasures. 4You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the
world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of
the world becomes an enemy of God. 5 Or do you think Scripture says without
reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell
in us? 6 But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: “God
opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.”
