4What is the source of the wars and the fights among you? Don't they come from the cravings that are at war within you?G4159G4171G2532G3163G1722G5213G3756G1782G1537G5216G2237G4754G1722G5216G31962You desire and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. You do not have because you do not ask.G1937G2532G2192G3756G5407G2532G2206G2532G3756G1410G2013G3164G2532G4170G1161G2192G3756G1223G5209G154G33613You ask and don't receive because you ask wrongly, so that you may spend it on your desires for pleasure.G154G2532G2983G3756G1360G154G2560G2443G1159G1722G5216G22374Adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? So whoever wants to be the world's friend becomes God's enemy.G3432G2532G3428G1492G3756G3754G5373G2889G2076G2189G2316G3739G302G3767G1511G1014G5384G2889G2525G2190G23165Or do you think it's without reason the Scripture says that the Spirit He has caused to live in us yearns jealously?G2228G1380G3754G1124G3004G2761G4151G3739G2730G1722G2254G1971G4314G53556But He gives greater grace. Therefore He says: God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.G1161G1325G3187G5485G1352G3004G2316G498G5244G1161G1325G5485G50117Therefore, submit to God. But resist the Devil, and he will flee from you.G5293G3767G2316G436G1228G2532G5343G575G52168Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, sinners, and purify your hearts, double-minded people!G1448G2316G2532G1448G5213G2511G5495G268G2532G48G2588G13749Be miserable and mourn and weep. Your laughter must change to mourning and your joy to sorrow.G5003G2532G3996G2532G2799G5216G1071G3344G1519G3997G2532G5479G1519G272610Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will exalt you.G5013G1799G2962G2532G5312G5209G531211Don't criticize one another, brothers. He who criticizes a brother or judges his brother criticizes the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.G2635G3361G2635G240G80G2635G80G2532G2919G846G80G2635G3551G2532G2919G3551G1161G1487G2919G3551G1488G3756G4163G3551G235G292312There is one lawgiver and judge who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?G2076G1520G3550G3588G1410G4982G2532G622G5101G1488G4771G3739G2919G2087
Our Will and His Will
13Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will travel to such and such a city and spend a year there and do business and make a profit."G33G3568G3004G4594G2532G839G4198G1519G3592G4172G2532G4160G4160G1563G1520G1763G2532G1710G1710G2532G2770G277014You don't even know what tomorrow will bring— what your life will be! For you are a bit of smoke that appears for a little while, then vanishes.G3748G1987G3756G3588G839G1063G4169G5216G2222G2076G1063G822G4314G5316G3641G1161G1899G85315Instead, you should say, "If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that."G473G5209G3004G1437G2962G2309G2532G2198G2198G2532G4160G4160G5124G2228G156516But as it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.G1161G3568G2744G1722G5216G212G3956G5108G2746G2076G419017So, for the person who knows to do good and doesn't do it, it is a sin.G3767G1492G4160G2570G2532G4160G3361G846G2076G266
