What is worldliness?

Monday - 8/27 - Read James 4:1-12

James doesn't pull any punches when he confronts worldliness. But, what is worldliness?

Is worldliness something we do? Or is it something or some way we think? Col. 2:8

When we leave God out of the picture as we approach life, what is going to determine how we feed our desires and appetites?

Worldliness is not so much what's "out there" in this world but what's "in there" in our hearts. What's in your heart?

In James 4:1-3 James asks, "What causes fights and quarrels among you?" What's the answer according to James v. 1?(cp. possibly with Mt. 5:21-22)?

So are you getting your way or not? How are you reacting if you're not getting in your way?

Read Isa. 1:18; Mt. 26:26-29 for next Sunday
