1 Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your
members?
![Page 4: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
2 You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet you do not have because
you do not ask.

3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on
your pleasures.

4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes
himself an enemy of God.

5 Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, "The Spirit who dwells in us
yearns jealously"?

members?

Romans 7:14-25 (New Living Translation)14 So the trouble is not with the law, for it is spiritual and good. The trouble is with me, for I am all too human, a slave to sin. 15 I don’t really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don’t do it.
![Page 10: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Instead, I do what I hate. 16 But if I know that what I am doing is wrong, this shows that I agree that the law is good. 17 So I
am not the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it. 18 And I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my
![Page 11: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
sinful nature.* I want to do what is right, but I can’t. 19 I want to do what is good, but I don’t. I don’t want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway. 20 But if I do what I don’t want to do, I am not really the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me
![Page 12: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
that does it.21 I have discovered this principle of life—that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is wrong. 22 I love God’s law with all my heart. 23 But there is another power* within me that is at war with my mind.
![Page 13: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me. 24 Oh, what a
miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death? 25 Thank God! The answer is in
Jesus Christ our Lord. So you see how it is:
![Page 14: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
In my mind I really want to obey God’s law, but because of my sinful nature I am
a slave to sin.

you do not ask.

1 John 3:14-1514 We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death. 15 Whoever

hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life
abiding in him.

3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on
your pleasures.

Proverbs 1:28-3028 "Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently, but they
will not find me. 29 Because they hated knowledge And did not choose the fear of the LORD, 30 They would have none of my counsel
And despised my every rebuke.

Psalm 66:18"If I regard iniquity in my heart, The Lord
will not hear"

4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes
himself an enemy of God.

Romans 8:6-86 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. 8 So then, those who are in the flesh
cannot please God.
![Page 23: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
1 John 2:15-1715 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world--the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life--
![Page 24: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
is not of the Father but is of the world. 17 And the world is passing away, and the
lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.

John 15:18-1918 "If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. 19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the
world hates you.

1 Corinthians 6:19-2019 Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? 20 For you were bought at a price;
therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.
![Page 28: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Matthew 6:19-2119 "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust
![Page 29: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure
is, there your heart will be also.
![Page 30: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
2 Corinthians 6:14-1814 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? 15 And what accord has Christ with Belial?
![Page 31: The Book of James](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162d9550346895dd36036/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? 16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall

be My people." 17 Therefore "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you." 18 "I will be a
Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the LORD Almighty."
