WHEREFORE

James 1: 19-21

 

Seeing that being drawn away from God and his word is of the lust of our sinful flesh and seeing that every good and perfect gift is from the Father of lights, let every man be swift to hear the word of God, slow to speak and slow to wrath.  Beginning with Adam in the garden, we see that the wrath of man does not work the righteousness of God.  Wherefore lay apart the defiling excess of our own wisdom and words (Col 2:3, 4; Eph 5:6; Col 2:8). And receive with meekness the engrafted word which is able to save the soul (1 Peter 1:23-25; 2:1-3).
