CONDEMNATION OF WORLDLINESS teaches that: Friendship with the World Destroys Our Fellowship with God 4 You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? (James 4:4)

5 For your Maker is your husband—the Lord Almighty is his name—the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth. (Isa 54:5)

4 …Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. (James 4:4)

2. Friendship with the World Denies Our Faith in God’s Word  5 Or do you think Scripture says without reason that the spirit he caused to live in us envies intensely? (James 4:5)

4 “You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, (Ex 20:4-5)

14 Do not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God. (Ex 34:14)   15 for the LORD your God, who is among you, is a jealous God… (Deut 6:15)

THE CURE FOR WORLDLINESS 6 But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” (James 4:6)

Grace Principle Number Two: Resist the Devil 7 Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (James 4:7)

Grace Principle Number Three: Restore Worship to a Priority 8 Come near to God and he will come near to you. (James 4:8)

Grace Principle Number Four: Renounce Sinful Actions 8 Wash your hands, you sinners, (James 4:8)

Grace Principle Number Five: Reject Sinful Attitudes 8 purify your hearts, you double- minded. (James 4:8)

Grace Principle Number Six: React to Sin with Sorrow 9 Grieve, mourn and wail. (James 4:8)

Grace Principle Number Seven: Refrain from a Frivolous Attitude toward Evil 9 Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. (James 4:8)

Grace Principle Number Eight: Respond Humbly to Success 10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up. (James 4:10)

Grace Principle Number Nine: Refuse to Slander Your Brother 11 Brothers, do not slander one another. James 4:11)
