Overcoming Worldliness
James 4:1-6
Context - In dealing with genuine Christianity, James has addressed Works (2:14-26), Words (3:1-12), Wisdom (3:13-18) and now he addresses Worldliness (4:1-6).
Worldliness - Devoting oneself to the things and philosophies of the temporal world. The condition of being concerned with worldly affairs, especially to the neglect of spiritual things.
To overcome worldliness…
1) Study what the world has done for you (1-4)
2) Submit to God (5)
3) Satisfy your life with His Grace (6)
