Presentation transcript:

13Come now, you who say, Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit; 14whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. 15Instead you ought to say, If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that. 16But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. 17Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

Plans were being made… 13 Come now, you who say, Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, They have done abominable works, There is none who does good.

No consideration for the brevity of life… 14whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away 27And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this, the judgment.

There is nothing wrong with making plans. The problems is: 15 Instead you ought to say, If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that. It is beautiful when you hear Christians fully depending on the will of God.

This boasting is in regards to accomplishment. Without God- that is the problem, and it is the SIN… 16But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil

The one who knows how to include God in their plans and DOES NOT, commits sin. 17Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

These may cause one to forget God or leave God out either deliberately or accidentally. Such is dangerous! 28for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, For we are also His offspring. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

1. God has a will even in THINGS OF THE WORLD. 2. God will intervene providentially in carrying out His will. In order to include God, His will must be known and understood.

Do you know and understand his will? Do you know and understand his will?

Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, Before the difficult days come, And the years draw near when you say, I have no pleasure in them Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin
