Doing vs. Deception
Read a passage from Scripture, see it, memorize it, but then give in to fleeting thoughts.
Law=freedom
Not forgetting but doing
Dealing with the tongue:
Anger and Tongues:
Anger and Tongues:
Form of self-deception
“Uncontrolled anger leads to uncontrolled speech.”
Moo
Tongue as bridle
Religion is useless
Religion is useless
Goal: Pure and Faultless Religion:
To look after orphans
To look after widows in distress
To keep oneself form being polluted by the world.
Being angry at the wrong things!
Holy Rage.
We should be angrier!
Highlight ‘HUMAN’ anger.
Think of doing as your Life Liturgy
Vs. 21: Take off your dirty clothes.
God’s word is what changes us.
Explanation of Mirror:
To “remember” God, his acts and his teachings, is to contemplate them in such a way that they make a lasting impression on the heart and the mind.
The person who “forgets” what he has seen in God’s word is one who reads or listens superficially, not imprinting the message on the soul.
28 But he said, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”
To keep oneself unstained from the world- “Contaminating influence.”

Reborn by Word of Truth
Reborn by Word of Truth
Word is Planted in you
But to James, word isn’t about doing devotions.
It’s about wanting to do the Righteous Laws found in the Word.
“We might almost call this a “law of the heart,” a growing and innate sense of God’s purpose and pleasure in a given situation.”
Don’t be deceived if you think the word is enough
Moo: Usually take off is coupled with ‘put on Christ’.
Rather, we are called to accept the word.
Receive it.
“He does so because he wants to focus attention on a more basic issue than the adopting of a new code behavior: the influence of God’s word in producing that new kind of behavior.”
Moo.
Reading God’s Word is obeying God’s Word
James had a lot in common with his brother: : But he said, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”
Mirror Analogy: “To “remember” God, his acts and his teachings, is to contemplate them in such a way that they make a lasting impression on the heart and the mind.
The person who “forgets” what he has seen in God’s word is one who reads or listens superficially, not imprinting the message on the soul.”
Douglas Moo
Anyone who listens but does not do the word= forgetting what you look like.
Forgetting who you are.
Forgetting your identity.

Unbridled Tongue:
Stop talking!
Stop tweeting!
Be Slow to Speak.
Think before you talk.
Human Anger
Hear this word, you cows of Bashan on Mount Samaria,
you women who oppress the poor and crush the needy
and say to your husbands, “Bring us some drinks!”
The Sovereign Lord has sworn by his holiness:
“The time will surely come
when you will be taken away with hooks,
the last of you with fishhooks.
You will each go straight out
through breaks in the wall.…

Garret Keiser wrote a book called The Enigma of Anger: Essays on a Sometimes Deadly Sin.
He writes: Anger is often nothing more than a hasty judgment registered as a nasty emotion.
Keiser goes on to explain how anger stands out from the 7 deadly sins.
The other six have companions.
Pride and envy, he writes are companions because “both have to do with a lack of proper balance within oneself and between oneself and the world.”
43
Lust and Gluttony he calls the fleshy sins.
“Lust is to erotic desire as gluttony is to physical hunger.”
46
Greed and sloth, “Compares the ‘go-getter verses the couch potato’.
49
That leaves anger.
Anger, he writes gets coupled up with all of them.
As I said, Balaam struggled with pride.
Pride and greed manifested itself through anger.
The problem with anger then is that it is often associated with the wrong things.
Think about it for yourself.
What makes you angry?
What just gets you ticked off?
Do you get angry when you are made a fool?
Does your envy towards make you angry?
Does your unhealthy erotic desires make you angry about yourself?
Your spouse?
Does your pursuit for more money get you angry?
Anger is like a flame, but it’s not the kindling.
It’s the kindling or the logs that we need to deal with.
If you don’t, then anger often becomes the natural outcome.
And just to be clear, sometimes anger doesn’t need to be outbursts of rage either.
