James: Wisdom/Responsibility

Bostonians are ambitious. Its a face. From our entrepreneurial ventures, our sports dynasties, or even our weekly schedules we are ambitious. With this ambition we are often coming from a place of achievement and getting ahead of whatever or whomever we must. There is a certain type of wisdom one needs to make it in the hustling & bustling world that is Boston. Continuing our study in James, we consider the dichotomy James makes between Wisdom & Righteousness. these both sound like good things, but James helps us see that what our world often prizes and extols as "wisdom" is completely different from the call Jesus has on our lives. The Righteousness James calls us to is actually wisdom from above.A Bostonian who is following Jesus will be markedly different in displaying wisdom from above in everyday life - a wisdom that has righteousness as its output or fruit.
