Connect: True Wisdom, James 3:13-18, Pastor Jeff McVay
We’ve looked at how we can be spiritually better by loving God with all our heart and emotionally better by loving God with all our soul. Today, we are going to discover how to be intellectually better by loving God with all our mind. Let’s look at a few of the things the Bible tells us about our minds, our intellects, our ability to think and reason, to learn and obtain wisdom and knowledge. What do they tell us about how to love God with all our mind?

The 13th sermon in a series on James, on what wisdom actually is. Find us: maranathalilburn.org Follow us: facebook.com/maranathalilburn instagram.com/maranathalilburn
“But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy and the fruit of good deeds. It shows no favoritism and is always sincere.” (James 3:17 NLT-SE)

Our focus is to experience the fullness offered in Christ according to the scriptures and not according to the culture. We seek to love more purely, worship more genuinely and witness more honestly as we grow in unity. If you’re looking for real people
This morning's sermon continues the "Faith in Action" series, focusing on James 3:13-18. It contrasts two types of wisdom: the worldly, marked by bitter envy and selfish ambition, and the heavenly, characterized by purity, peace, and mercy. The sermon emphasizes that true wisdom is not just intellectual but demonstrated through humble and godly actions. When off the right path, believers are encouraged to seek God's wisdom, which is accessible through a relationship with Jesus. By relying on Jesus, we can transform our lives from worldly folly to divine wisdom.
Knowing the difference between Godly and worldly wisdom and living accordingly, can greatly bless our lives and those around us.

Continuing in the book of James of the (Faith & action) series; Pastor Ben teaches us the impotence of God's wisdom in our lives and how it does not only have to do with knowledge but it is how we use the knowledge for God and the difference of worldly wisdom. James tells us that being wise is the knowledge of God's guidance and putting that in action in our life's to produce good fruit. so let's tune in and dive deep to God's word *Reference scriptures: Matthew 7: 15-18 If you are interested in attending our live teachings (Wednesdays @ 7:00 pm & Sundays @ 10:00 am), please visit us at 4218 Boston Ave. Lubbock Texas.

Wisdom is the guiding force, directing our decisions. The kind of wisdom we embrace determines the choices we make. In its simplest form, there are only 2 kinds of wisdom. There’s earthly wisdom and there’s Heavenly wisdom. Earthly wisdom starts off ok. It's alluring, promising, satisfying. Even people in churches are drawn to earthly wisdom. But earthly wisdom’s cunning is inspired by our own selfish, sinful lusts that draw us away from following Jesus. The consequences of earthly wisdom vary from small stupid choices, all the way to destructive, vile, evil. Heavenly wisdom is the opposite. It’s inspired by a desire for humility, peace, mercy, & a harvest of righteousness. It seems like it should be easy to tell the two apart. But most people can’t tell the difference until it’s too late. What makes it difficult is earthly wisdom doesn’t start out looking demonic, if that were true it would be easy to spot. But that’s where it ends up if you can’t spot earthly wisdom soon enough & know how to deal with it. These two kinds of wisdom couldn’t be more different & being able to tell them apart is an important test of our faith. (JAMES 3:13–18) WHO IS WISE AND UNDERSTANDING AMONG YOU? BY HIS GOOD CONDUCT LET HIM SHOW HIS WORKS IN THE MEEKNESS OF WISDOM. [14] BUT IF YOU HAVE BITTER JEALOUSY AND SELFISH AMBITION IN YOUR HEARTS, DO NOT BOAST AND BE FALSE TO THE TRUTH. [15] THIS IS NOT THE WISDOM THAT COMES DOWN FROM ABOVE, BUT IS EARTHLY, UNSPIRITUAL, DEMONIC. [16] FOR WHERE JEALOUSY AND SELFISH AMBITION EXIST, THERE WILL BE DISORDER AND EVERY VILE PRACTICE. [17] BUT THE WISDOM FROM ABOVE IS FIRST PURE, THEN PEACEABLE, GENTLE, OPEN TO REASON, FULL OF MERCY AND GOOD FRUITS, IMPARTIAL AND SINCERE. [18] AND A HARVEST OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SOWN IN PEACE BY THOSE WHO MAKE PEACE.

"Wisdom... Worldly vs. Heavenly"
Who do you consider as wise? Where do you go for direction, guidance, and truth? James gives us a litmus test to see if the "wisdom" we have is true, godly wisdom or false worldly wisdom. I pray you’ll use James’s litmus test to evaluate what kind of wisdom are you pursuing? What are you building your life on? The solid rock of Christ’s wisdom, or the shifting sands of worldly philosophy?

Making Wise Choices
Every civilization and culture operates with a prevailing “wisdom” - an agreed upon and accepted perception of what is important and right and good. Yet as Christians we often fail to recall that we are citizens of a heavenly Kingdom, and as such out to be characterized by our adherence to the wisdom of our King. Join us as we reflect upon the wisdom that should describe us and our actions.

When you are in right relationship with God you will be in right relationship with everything else he has made - this is the essence of wisdom. But be careful, it is common to think you are wise when you aren’t. Listen in as Peter explains.
