The Wisdom from Heaven

by Alistair Begg

James 3:13–18
 (ID: 2584)

God gives His people true wisdom that brings practical, positive changes in our public conduct. As Alistair Begg explains, Scripture defines how we understand true wisdom. The book of James in particular presents us with applications of wisdom in everyday life. With his everyday approach, James taught that Christians must practice submitting to God’s wise instruction and show good fruit with peaceable behavior and mercy toward others.
