    Be subject to authorities but obey God rather than man where there is a conflict.

    Who are you, whom do you serve? I pray you are a Christian, a Christ follower, and a Child of God. Who do you say you are? Children of God obey the laws of this earthly world AND the law that established all earthly rules, God’s Law. Humans are subject to appointed and divine powers. Man is ...read more

    James asks: “What causes fights and quarrels among you?” (verse 1). As usual, James asks a question and does not leave us hanging, but gives us an answer to help direct our minds and hearts. James pinpoints the seeds of quarrels as wrong desires inside us.

    Those who walk in the Spirit are assured that they will have the peace of God, not the absence of conflict.

    Galatians 5:22–23 (NLT) 22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control.

    Sowing Discord

    Sowing discord among brethren is an abomination in the eyes of the Lord. Considering yourself better than others fosters division but considering others better than yourself fosters unity. Watch out for those who cause divisions and avoid them. Love binds us, discord separates us.

    SOWING DISCORD “A perverse man sows’ strife, and a whisperer separates the best of friends” (Proverbs 16:28) Brethren are created by God to live in unity (How good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! (Psalm ...read more
