Be Quick to Hear, Slow to Speak, Slow to Anger
GTM - Be Quick to Hear, Slow to Speak, Slow to Anger - By Tom Fannin - March 25, 2023
Tom Fannin: Hello, everyone. It's great to be with you again.
Let's begin the message by looking at James's writing in the first chapter. So let's go back to the book of James, James 1:17, he says, Every good act of giving and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the father of lights with whom there is no variation nor shadow of returning. And we know the A gift for us is the gift of grace. So in our calling verse 18, it says, according to his own will he be God, us by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first fruits.
Of all his created beings, we know that what we look forward to is being the first fruits in the Kingdom of [00:01:00] God. But let's go on and focus on verse 19 and what the message is about here today. It says, for this reason, keeping these things in mind about our calling and the purpose God has for us and what we should be doing, here are some things James said we need to keep in mind.
It says, for this reason, my beloved Brethren. Let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger because man's wrath does not work out God's righteousness. So again, James gives us something here for us to consider and think about as we're on this spiritual walk. With God's spirit within us, we should be, as it says here, striving.
To work out God's righteousness within us.
