Jas 3:13  Who among you is wise and understanding? Let him demonstrate it by his good way of life, by actions done in the humility that grows out of wisdom. 
Jas 3:14  But if you harbor in your hearts bitter jealousy and selfish ambition, don't boast and attack the truth with lies! 
Jas 3:15  This wisdom is not the kind that comes down from above; on the contrary, it is worldly, unspiritual, demonic. 
Jas 3:16  For where there are jealousy and selfish ambition, there will be disharmony and every foul practice. 
Jas 3:17  But the wisdom from above is, first of all, pure, then peaceful, kind, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. 
Jas 3:18  And peacemakers who sow seed in peace raise a harvest of righteousness.

Jas 3:7  For people have tamed and continue to tame all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles and sea creatures; 
Jas 3:8  but the tongue no one can tame—it is an unstable and evil thing, full of death-dealing poison! 
Jas 3:9  With it we bless Adonai, the Father; and with it we curse people, who were made in the image of God. 
Jas 3:10  Out of the same mouth come blessing and cursing! Brothers, it isn't right for things to be this way. 
Jas 3:11  A spring doesn't send both fresh and bitter water from the same opening, does it? 
Jas 3:12  Can a fig tree yield olives, my brothers? or a grapevine, figs? Neither does salt water produce fresh. 

Eph 4:29  Let no harmful language come from your mouth, only good words that are helpful in meeting the need, words that will benefit those who hear them. 
Eph 4:30  Don't cause grief to God's Ruach HaKodesh, for he has stamped you as his property until the day of final redemption. 
Eph 4:31  Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, violent assertiveness and slander, along with all spitefulness. 
Eph 4:32  Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted; and forgive each other, just as in the Messiah God has also forgiven you. 

We had a great practice last night for our upcoming live concert.

Tune in on August 4th on the Headmasters Homeroom show to worship with us!

Pro 30:12  There is a type of people clean in their own view, but not cleansed from their filth. 

For Moses writes about the righteousness that is based on the law, that the person who does the commandments shall live by them.
Romans 10:5 ESV

See Leviticus 18:5. There really is a kind of righteousness in the Law. Obedience to the commandments really does bring life. God doesn’t lie. His promises are sure.

The problem is that the blessings and curses of the Law given at Sinai are temporal. While disobedience to the written command causes a person to fall short of God’s glory and warrant eternal damnation, obedience can do nothing at all to enable a person’s eternal life once a single command has been broken. A moment of hatred for a brother costs eternity, and no amount of love will ever restore it.

For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
Romans 10:4 ESV

Did Paul really write that Christ is the termination (i.e. cancelation, death, annulment, etc.) of the Law? Only if James also wrote that compassion is the termination of God.

Telos can mean termination, but it can also mean fulfillment, culmination, climax, purpose, or aim. In Luke 22:37, this word is clearly used concerning Scripture in the sense of “central point” or “fulfillment”. In 1 Thessalonians 2:16, it means “culmination” or “fullest extent”.

For, being ignorant of the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, my fellow Jews did not submit to God's righteousness.
Romans 10:3

They not only hid God’s actual commandments in favor of their own, but were blind themselves to the nature of the righteousness brought by the Messiah, an unearned, imputed righteousness that could remove their sins and make them perfect in God’s eyes. They can never receive the free gift of infinite righteousness until they acknowledge their inability to achieve it on their own.

This could easily have been written about the Christian Church at any time after the first century. They forbid marriage and countless other activities, which God allows, and they allow--and sometimes demand--activities that God has explicitly and repeatedly forbidden for his people. By refraining from smoking, drinking, dancing, gambling, “bad” music, and more, they believe they are living a holier life. It’s all legalistic vanity.
