  • Rely on the Scriptures to avoid arguments

    How do you avoid arguments with others? James 4:1 says, “They come from your desires that battle within you.” When my wants conflict with your wants the sparks fly.

    In James 4:1-10 he goes into greater detail as to the causes of conflict, but I want to look at his cures for conflict. “God gives grace to the humble” (4:6). “Humble yourselves before God and He will lift you up” (4:10). The cure is humility.

  • Avoid strife for a godly life

    Personality conflicts cause many problems in our lives. We don’t get along with some people and when relationships are bad, life stinks. It is very important that we learn to get along with others.

    James says in 3:18, “Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness.” We sow seeds every day in our relationships and one day there will be a harvest. What kind of harvest will it be? It all depends on the seeds we have sown. The question then becomes: How can I plant seeds of peace and have peaceful relationships?

  • You're never too old to get a new heart and spirit

    Controlling the tongue was our subject last week. James 3:1-12 gives three reasons for controlling the tongue: my tongue directs where I go, it can destroy what I have and it shows who I am inside.

    Our problem is not with our mouth but with the heart. The tongue lets us know what is in the heart. “For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks” (Matthew 12:34).

  • Revelation: The beast will rise from the sea

    Revelation 13:1-10 discusses the beast from the sea.

    The beast rising up out of the sea is a mirror-image of the dragon, called forth from the peoples of the world (17:15) as an ally in his war against the saints.

    The crowns are the 10 horns (political power) not on the seven heads (the source of authority) which is the dragon who delegates authority to the beast. The beast is the incarnation of political-social evil and is a composite of Daniel’s pictures of past political powers (see Daniel 7:7).
