James 4:1
Control of the Passions
SUMMARY OF JAMES 4: Strifes from the War of Passions. Fornication with
the World. Seeking the Grace of God. Humbling Ourselves Before the
Lord. Evil Speaking of Brethren. The Uncertainties of This Life.
From which [come] wars and fightings? Peace has been spoken in
James 3:18, but the world is full of strife. Whence is it? James
shows it is due to human passions.
Among you? James was so Jewish, though a Christian, that sometimes
he looked beyond the church to his fleshly brethren. He here seems to
address them like another Amos or Jeremiah.
[Even] from your own lusts. They are due to insatiate desires.
