Wisdom from above.
Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it
by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes
from wisdom.
But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your
hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. Such "wisdom"
does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual,
of the devil. 16For where you have envy and selfish ambition,
there you find disorder and every evil practice.
But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure;
then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy
and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow
in peace raise a harvest of righteousness.
James 3:13-18 NIV
Walk by the Spirit
What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God--through Jesus Christ our Lord!
So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God's law, but in the sinful nature a slave to the law of sin.
Romans 7:24,25 NIV
_______________
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
Romans 6:6,14 KJV
_______________
But I say, walk by the Spirit, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh.
Galatians 5:16 RSV
_______________
If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.
John 8:31b,32 NASB
_______________
God, Whose grace is all sufficient, be glorified!
Thanks be unto God for His wonderful gift: Jesus Christ, the only
begotten Son of God is the object of our faith; the only faith that
saves is faith in Him.
