James 1:22-25

Big Idea: Because peace with self is found when we mirror God’s truth, we must intentionally align our actions and thoughts with God's Word.

Testimony Intro: Today’s passage is based in the book of James. Now James is writing to believers on the outskirts of Palestine or Israel. These believers were being persecuted for their faith and living in poverty. Social and spiritual conflict surrounded them. And… many of those who said they were “believers” were living in a worldly manner. They allowed their surroundings to dictate how they responded to God. James corrects them and challenges them to seek God’s wisdom to work out these problems.

Lets read James 1:22-25 together.

There’s two people here in the passage, the “doer” and the “hearer.”
