James 3:13-18 โ "Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their 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 โwisdomโ does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. For 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 reap a harvest of righteousness."

Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth."

And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me, but raise them up at the last day. For my Fatherโs will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.โ"

From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. โFor in him we live and move and have our being.โ As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.'"
