James 3:17
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
A little peace, a little courage. Start with one verse.
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
What did these words bring you?
James contrasts wisdom from above with envy and selfish ambition that produce disorder. A claim to wisdom should be tested by visible fruit such as gentleness, mercy, integrity, and peace rather than confidence alone.
