Two Wisdom (James 3:13-18)
No one on this earth will not want to be wise.
But today the Bible says that there are two kinds of wisdom.
There is wisdom that goes toward God and there is wisdom that goes toward the world. And you can see some people who have both of these things and live with two faces and two words to get both.
(Verse 10) Out of the same mouth come forth praise and cursing, my brethren, this is not the case.
So what wisdom should we seek?
And what does a wise person look like?
(13) Who among you has wisdom and understanding, let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom through good works.
No matter how much knowledge you have in the world or how old your religious experience is, it tells you to show your wisdom in a gentle manner without strife or quarrels.
Unwise politicians provoke the people. They will use their own clever and strategic tactics, but unless they are acts of the meekness of wisdom, they are worldly, lustful, and demonic, as we will discuss in more detail later.
In the days when there was no internet, you had to buy a magazine or read a newspaper to view celebrity photos. Of course, both male and female actors are handsome and only pretty pictures come out. However, in the present age, it is called capturing a moment, and unknowingly, ugly images are taken around the Internet. Now, the president's face is also good or bad depending on the taste of the newspaper.
There are some people who swear by all kinds of profanity in the comments.
Freedom is not that kind of freedom. The media law must be made up one day. If you say that preventing such a thing is deteriorating democracy, that person is really ignorant.
Those who possess true wisdom do not assert themselves or promote themselves with words.
Only by silently demonstrating what you believe in your actions will earn people's respect and approval. However, people who do not know the wisdom that God gives them try to be recognized as right by fighting, slander, and slander. This will have an impact for a while, but it will not take long for the arrow to return to you.
(14) But if you have bitter envy and strife in your hearts, do not boast; do not lie against the truth.
(15) This wisdom does not come down from above, but is worldly, lustful, and demonic.
Worldly--- To think in the way that people in this world think. Don't look up. They do not see that God is alive. What the eye sees is everything. They don't even care about the living God behind it.
Lustful--- self-centered. The spirit world is unknown. My children, my body, my possessions This is the focus of attention.
Demonic---There are also demonic things in wisdom. Very wise and persuasive, it crashes people's minds.
Who is the best union president?
Hearing this man's speech, the heart that can't bear to hate someone should be broken. It is said that Hitler, who caused World War II, heard this man's speech and ruled Germany with demonic power.
Being impulsive is not justice... It is not from God that creates hatred in my heart and anger in my heart. It is worldly. It is lustful. It means that it started with the devil. A sense of justice is not a hasty impulse. A female college student committed suicide by impulsively following President Roh. After Roh Moo-hyun finished the National Assembly (official cost is 4.5 billion won), I saw the news that the demonstration continued last night, and I continued to search the Internet to see which people were so loyal. , civic groups such as the Pan-National Countermeasures Committee for the Yongsan Disaster, and students belonging to the Korea University Student Association (Han Dae-ryun).
The Cargo Regiment, which caused controversy over the bamboo spear, held a demonstration again yesterday in Yeouido and decided to go on a general strike from June 11th.
It is worldly, lustful, and demonic.
(16) For where there is envy and strife, there is disturbance and every evil thing.
Envy and contention will only have destructive rather than constructive consequences.
At first, they start for the momentary benefit of themselves and their family or group, but later
This turns into envy and strife, and eventually into turmoil, disorder and corruption.
Examples of this can also be seen in the church today.
All of these behaviors are the result of the foolishness of wanting to be more appreciated by others.
Faith is life, not knowledge.
Saints should know that they are called to do the work of God, not to speak their own opinion.
(17) But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, tolerant, docile, full of mercy and good fruit, without partiality and without deceit.
Worldly wisdom has bitter envy, strife, and deceit against the truth, whereas wisdom from above sows peace and reaps the fruit of righteousness. Therefore, we, the members of Jesus Mission Church, must strive to acquire this true wisdom.
1) True wisdom is holiness
What is holiness? It means that you are clean enough to come before God.
True wisdom is not wisdom to be revealed. True wisdom is the wisdom to stand right before God. I ask that you and I will come to our Lord, the bridegroom, with a clean and sanctified body and mind.
2) True wisdom seeks peace
True wisdom is the wisdom that makes the relationship between God and humans and between humans and humans a harmonious relationship. False wisdom discords and divides our relationship with God. False wisdom also makes the relationship between man and man and between man and nature destructive. After all, there is no peace in false wisdom.
3) True wisdom is generous
True wisdom is wisdom not to criticize others with harsh words and deeds. True wisdom does not vehemently insist on only one's own opinion, ignoring the significance or importance of opinions that are contrary to one's own.
Also, we are not rude, arrogant, or callous in our dealings with others. He knows how to embrace, embrace, and persevere.
4) True wisdom is docile
True wisdom from heaven is gentle.
It is not a weak and sensible thing to do with injustice and evil. The word goodness here refers to the attitude of the heart that is docile in accepting the exhortations to do good or to turn away from evil.
5) True wisdom is full of mercy and good fruit
Compassion is generally thought of as sympathy extended to those who are suffering from outside. Therefore, it refers to an attitude of compassion for not only human suffering, but also the suffering of sins and negligence. So, it does not stop there, but it is about diligently preaching the gospel and bearing fruit. It is to become a child of God, the king of kings who created all things from children of sin. I earnestly hope that many fruits of souls will bear fruit in the Jesus Mission Church through you.
6) True wisdom is not biased
What is a sidewall? It refers to making an erroneous and erroneous guess by judging or judging one person in particular. True wisdom is the absence of such partiality. That is, there is no bias.
Therefore, people with true wisdom do not act sectarian or act for their own benefit, nor do they criticize or downplay others because they have different opinions.
7) True wisdom does not lie
True wisdom does not disguise or deceive anything. This wisdom is neither cunning nor cunning, nor does it fall into any tricks that the world calls wise.
True wisdom is only faithful, open, steady, unchanging, and inexhaustible. There is nothing disguised as deceitful and acting in order to achieve the purpose.
The Unification Church catches people in front of the station and takes them to their church to take care of their palms. Our Jesus Mission Church is a church that gives eternal life. It is a church that gives purpose to life. It is a church that gives true peace that no one on this earth can give.
They do not say that if you go to church on a Sunday you will be blessed. They say that we can abide in the Lord only when we read the Word, pray, and obey Him. You must repent to the Lord with tears in your eyes to receive the forgiveness of sins.
It is a church that says that those who are saved are only those who say with their mouths, ?쏬ord, Lord,??not those who live in the world, but those who are thinking about what to do today for Jesus, who died for me.
I will conclude
(James 1:5) ?쏧f any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.??The way to gain heavenly wisdom is through the Word, prayer, and obedience. When we have fellowship with God through the Word and prayer and obey the Word, we become the possessor of a wise personality that resembles God.
When you're with a drug addict, you're on drugs. If you are with an adulterous person, you will become adulterous without even knowing it. If you play with negative and worldly people, you will soon discover that the soul longing for God is dry and dead in your heart.
Jesus Christ is the source of wisdom. Therefore, the closer we come to Jesus Christ, the more we become like Him. Please pray this time today. I pray that you alone will be my everything and that I will become a beloved child who listens to your word.
