James
4:1 From whence come wars and fightings among you? Come they not hence,
even of your lusts that war in your members?.(?)
James 4:2 You lust and have not. You kill and
desire to have and cannot obtain. You fight and war, yet you have not,
because you ask not.
James
4:2 You lust.(original
'desire with passion to take whatever efforts to obtain', because in our
superficial erroneous and 'insane' thinking we believe this will somehow
complete us).and have not. You kill
and desire to have and cannot obtain. You fight and war.(one
of the heavier dark side things
a person could do to another is a premeditated
hurt or hurts, such as to another's body, their feelings, hopes, dreams,
finances,
aspiratiions,
etc.; if someone is hurting others in anyway, be they an individual,
a group of individuals such as corporations or governments, they lack love
for others and are selfish and even abusive:.Romans
13:10), yet you have not, because you ask not.(*)..And,
you ask not because you don't believe what God says:.John10:10.
James
4:3 You ask and receive not, because you ask amiss, that you may consume
it upon your lusts..(?)
James 4:4 You adulterers and adulteresses, know
you not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God?
James
4:4 You adulterers and adulteresses.(it
is not sensuality here meant {as the context.elicits},
but greed and worldliness generally), know you not that the friendship
of the world.(?).is
enmity
with God?
A lot of people trust in
money and have not yet reached the place in their existence on Earth where
spiritual concerns supersede
physical identifications:.Matthew
19:23.
James 4:5 Do you think that the scripture says in
vain, The spirit that dwells in us lusts to envy?
James
4:5 Do you think that the scripture says in vain,
The spirit that dwells in us lusts.(original
is 'excessive desires').to envy?
It's saying this is the
way we are built, the way we came here,
having both a spiritual component
and a physical component. It's really all
one, just different frequencies providing for particular
functioning. The natures
we have are subject to constantly missing the mark of a higher consciousness
because of the egos we have and
in this we feel friendliest and more comfortable with those of like mind
and this tends to keep us going on the so-called hell highway. Have the
courage to step up and away toward something better:.1Peter
4:4 "Wherein they think it strange that you run not with them to the
same excess of riot, speaking evil of you." Romans
12:3 "For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that
is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think,
but to think soberly..."
James
4:6 But he gives more grace.
Wherefore
he says, God resists the
proud,
but gives grace unto the
humble.
James
4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God.(how?).
Resist
the
devil and he will flee from you.
Original word for
'resist' means to 'in
advance decide not to go that way' and 'to set yourself against'
(you have free choice, choose
wisely, in your mind choose to stand against so your life goes well; standing
up for the rights you do have. When you stand up to the criminals perpetrating
harmful things (what harmful
things?), you are resisting the devil, because it's the devil who's
behind all evils afflicting you and others. If you don't stand up, then
you are standing down and when you stand down, you're 'done like dinner'.
That way, being close to
the devil, that is, meeting his influences, such as the wrong kind of pride
as mentioned in the verse above. The wrong kind of pride is the way of
evil toward others. Don't be a suck
in for the dark side.
The original part of the
word translated into English as 'men' is 'optanomai' or 'optomai' meaning
'looks
like a human'.
The verse says to resist,
but Matthew 5:39 says to not resist.
What
does all this mean?
And if one doesn't resist,
look out! How to resist.
Here's
what dark side beings have done to human beings who were sucked into
following dark side
influences
because of bribes,
brainwashing,
being blackmailed
or wheedled,
because of their greed
and because of their being coerced
into situations of control over them. Stay away from dark side mindedness
in all its forms (such as black magic)
of how situations come up to entice you to 'come on over'. It's all a
trick that is appealing.at
first or you would never consider whatever it may be, but it
always
bites you back badly further on down the line. If it wasn't attractive,
the devil wouldn't have captured anyone's mind:.2Timothy
2:26.
James 4:8 Draw near to God and he will draw nigh to
you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners and purify your hearts, you.double
minded.
James
4:8 Draw near to God and he will draw nigh to you.(one
way to draw near to God is to ask Him {Matthew
7:7} to accelerate
your growth spiritually and see
where to take action; here's what you can daily
do). Cleanse your hands.(cleansing
all you do is automatic when in
Christ), you.(word
'ye' {old English for 'you', 'your'}, not in original here).sinners.(what's
a sinner?).and purify.(how?).your
hearts.(*),
ye.(word 'ye'/'you'
here also not in original).double
minded.(duplicity)..It's
saying not to be double minded:.James
1:8. Just decide against evil and the bad things that lead to
evil.
Many people have no settled
principles and many are hypocritical.
They are not clearly seeing straight ahead (Matthew
7:13,14; Luke 13:24) because they
not grounded in the faith, yet (?).
It's a being of two minds, one negative (the monster in you; you at your
worst;
the mass mind
thinking of the majority of humanity) and the higher side of your expression
or the good you know how to be. It's your selection
of which one you'll give energy to:.Matthew
6:22; 7:13,14; James
1:8; 4:8.
James 4:9 Be afflicted and mourn and weep. Let your
laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to heaviness.
James
4:9 Be afflicted and mourn and weep.(think
about and be sorry for bad things you've done:.2Corinthians
4:17). Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy
to heaviness.
James
4:10.Humble yourselves
in the sight of the Lord and he shall lift you up.
Acts
20:32.
James
4:11 Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaks evil of
his brother and judges his brother, speaks evil of the law and judges the
law, but if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law, but a judge..(?)
James
4:12 There is one lawgiver who is able to save and to destroy.(so
don't worry about correcting the wrongs out there, God really is the only
one who can; you just do your spiritual
practices); who are you that judges another?.(?)
James
4:13.Go
to now, you.(those
that figure they are in charge of their lives 1,
2).that
say, Today or tomorrow.(whenever
it's in.my.mind
tp decide to).we will go into such
a city and continue there a year and buy and sell and get gain.
Buy and sell to
one's.advantage
only. Not good, because one then is using the laws of the universe for
selfishness. Because of that what one has sown will come back and whack
him or her.
James
4:14 Whereas you know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is
your life? It is even a vapour, that appears for a little time.(1Chronicles
29:15; Job 14:10; *).and
then vanishes away.
Like as all those
truly of God, they were
translated into another time and place as those of the true God today
will be by going to the new Earth, just like this one. It's now ready and
alongside
our Earth. So,
what
to do then? One thing is, not to forget what it is that you are:.Job
34:13-15.
James
4:15 For that you ought to say, If
the Lord will.(or,
'if it's based on high consciousness'), we shall live and
do
this or that.
James
4:16 But now you rejoice in your boastings.(hey!
I made a lot of money buying inexpensively and selling at an unconscionable
profit:.Mark
10:15). All such rejoicing is evil.
James
4:17 Therefore to him that knows to do good.(knows
he or she should be good because he or she knows right from wrong in dealing
with others).and does it not.(consumed
by greed),
to him it is sin.(what
does sin here mean?).
James
5:1.Go
to now, you rich men.(1Timothy
6:17), weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon
you.
Why would this happen?.Romans
2:5 "But because of your hardness and impenitent heart you've treasured
upto yourself wrath you'll see on the day of wrath and revelation of the
righteous judgment of God."
James
5:2,3 Your riches are corrupted and your garments are motheaten. Your
gold and silver is cankered.(corrupted).and
the rust of them shall be a witness against you and shall eat your flesh
as
it were fire. You have heaped treasure together for the last days.
James
5:4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields,
which is of you kept back by fraud, cries and the cries of them which have
reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord
of sabaoth.
The evil ones have
devious ways to pay you and get it all back from you, effectively leaving
you no further ahead as you work through the years of your life.
James
5:5,6 You have lived in pleasure on the earth and been wanton.
You have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter. You have condemned
and killed the just and he
does not resist you..(tries
to do the best he can under the oppressiveness,
why?)
James
5:7 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the
coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman
waits for the precious fruit of the earth and has long patience for it,
until he receive the early and latter rain.
James
5:8 Be you also patient. Stablish your hearts, for the
coming of the Lord draws nigh.
Where's
He coming to? prepare spiritually for more of the
supply of the nature of the Creator to be in
you.
James
5:9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest you be condemned.
Behold, the judge stands before
the door.
James 5:10 Take, my brethren, the prophets, who
have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction
and of patience.
James
5:10 Take, my brethren, the prophets,
who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering.(original
'experienced').affliction.(original
of the compound word is 'living life', used by the Greeks
in either a good or bad sense; we're not
to suffer {Luke 6:38} through life:.1Peter
2:21).and of patience.
James
5:11 Behold, we count them happy which endure.(original
for word 'endure'
is 'abide').
You have heard of the patience of Job
and have seen the end.('the
end' means the overall purpose of).of
the Lord.(the
purpose of why the Lord);
that the Lord is very pitiful and of tender mercy.
God has great emotional
kindness toward us and always had:.Deuteronomy
5:29; Ephesians 2:7; Titus
3:4.
James
5:12 But above all things, my brethren, swear not.(Matthew
5:34), neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any
other oath. But let your yea be yea and your nay, nay; lest you fall into
condemnation.
Your
mouth can get you into a lot of trouble:.Psalms
106:33..(?)
James
5:13 Is any among you afflicted? Let him pray. Is any merry? let him
sing psalms.(Colossians
3:16).
James
5:14 Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church.(those
ones may deem as
being mature spiritually).and
let them pray over him, anointing him with oil.(prayer,
anointing and oil only?).in the
name of the Lord.
James 5:15 And the prayer of faith shall save
the sick and the Lord shall raise him up and if he have committed sins,
they shall be forgiven him.
James
5:15 And the prayer.(the
original meaning involves 'the prominent thought is that of boldness and
freedom in approach to God').of faith
shall save the sick and the Lord shall raise him up and if he have committed
sins, they shall be.("shall
be" not in original; inserted for clarity in reading, but does slightly
change the tenor;
better if it had said: 'they are forgiven').forgiven
him.
James
5:16 Confess.(about
confessing:.Luke
12:8 notes).your faults one to
another and pray one for another, that you may be healed.(Job
42:10). The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous one
avails
much.
What's
a 'righteous' one mean?
James
5:17 Elias.(Luke
4:23-30).was a man subject to like
passions as we are and he prayed earnestly.(word
'earnestly' not in original Greek).that
it might not rain and it rained not on the earth by the space of three
years and six months.(compare.1Kings
17:1)..(?)
James
5:18 And he prayed again and the heaven gave rain and the earth brought
forth her fruit.
James 5:20 Let him know, that he which converts
the sinner from the error of his way saves a soul from death and hides
a multitude of sins.
James
5:20 Let him know, that he which converts.(he
or she who is instrumental
perhaps through prayer {Matthew 6:6}
and meditation in awakening
him or her to being a better individual, that is, instrumental in getting
him or her to move from low consciousness and onto the pathway of higher
consciousness).the sinner from
the error of his way.(walking
the normal way of selfishness
the ego puts out from its ordinary consciousness base, hurts us down the
road the longer we stay on that low road of life:.Galatians
6:8).saves a soul from death.(death
is where the lower road of life takes an individual toward his end, because
the open doors toward the pathway of it allow for influencing by the
dark side).and hides.(covers,
how?).a
multitude of sins.
