    America has had its ups and downs politically. But the underlying issue Christians must consider is the condition of the church and particularly their own spiritual state. This message applies 2 Chron. 7:14 as a solution.

    2 Chron. 7:13-14 5/3/15 The times we live in are significantly affected by two events in our recent history: (1) 9/11 in 2001 and (2) the economic bust in 2008.

    Our society values inclusiveness and acceptance. But sometimes the Bible presents us with a God that divides and separates. James 4:1=12 seems to be one of these passages. Or, is it?

    In our society one of the worst things that can be said of us is, “They are so divisive”. Our society is all about inclusiveness. We are all about acceptance; all about respecting differences; all about making room for all. That is what makes preaching from James 4:1-12 difficult. It is so ...read more

    James 4

    James tells us how to turn hatred into humility, judgment into justice and boasting into belief.

    There is a stark contrast in tone from chapter 3 to chapter 4 Chapter 3 (taming the tongue) closes with words like peace, gentleness, mercy, good fruits…it kind of ends on a good tone…but CH 4 contains words like fights, quarrels, lust, hate, envy, pride and sin. In CH 4 James gives clear advice on ...read more

    The Heart Of The Matter

    Contributed by Thomas Bowen on Oct 18, 2008
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,969 views

    Disagreements are normally centered around power and control. Getting our own way with little regard to what is actually best for a majority or a right thing to do.

    The Heart of the matter James 4:1-10 For the past couple of months we have had a sort of strange schedule. We have been in and out of the book of James.
