“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.” (James 3:17-18)
Main thoughts: I. New life begins in an ENCOUNTER with JESUS. II. New life is tested by old FRIENDS and WAYS. III. New life requires us to GROW in our FAITH. IV. New life is sustained by CLINGING to JESUS.
Summary: Our response to Jesus determines whether we will live in DARKNESS or in LIGHT. Can you say that once you were blind but now you can see?
