James 4: Are You Becoming a Friend of the World?

from Bible Chapter by Chapter · host Chris Hintsala

James Chapter 4 confronts some uncomfortable questions about the Christian life.Why do we fight and quarrel? Why do we want what we don't have? What does it mean to be a friend of the world? And why does James say that friendship with the world is enmity with God?In this episode of Bible Chapter by Chapter, we walk carefully through James 4 and explore:The source of quarrels and conflictsDesires that wage war within usFriendship with the worldPride and humility“God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble”Drawing near to GodJudging othersThe danger of boasting about tomorrow“If you know to do good and don't do it, it is sin”James doesn't offer comfortable Christianity. He calls us to humility, repentance, submission, and a life that actually reflects what we say we believe.📖 James Chapter 4🎧 Bible Chapter by Chapter📚 Season 19: Faith That WorksWhat part of James 4 challenges you the most?#James4 #BibleStudy #BibleChapterByChapter
