Sermon Scripture: James 4

James chapter 4 feels like a set of three disconnected warnings to the early followers of the way of Jesus, but if we take a step back, we can see a common thread running through each. In verses 1-10 James warns against envy and material greed, in verses 11-12 he warns against judging others, and in verses 13-17 he concludes by warning against boastful self-reliance.

Each of these conditions are a direct byproduct from a lack of trust in God, and James warns that this lack of trust ruins our ability to live in the freedom and fullness of life that Jesus bought us through victory over sin and death.
