‘The
World System Should Not Be Our Friend.’
James
4:4.
a) If we are a friend of the World system then we
are not friends of God.
b) Loving the World system is the same as being
God’s enemy.
c) It is like hating God.
(This
QT reminds me that The World System Should Not Be My Friend)

(This Second one shows me
That Obedience To The Lord Brings His Blessing)
Chris.
When we obey the Lord
there is only one way to do it, do it with all of our heart. Half-hearted obedience
is not obedience. The appearance of obedience alone is not obedience. The
Promise to obey is not obedience. We need to do it with all of our heart.
