The appeal on friendship with the world and being subject to God
세상과 벗이 되는 일과 하나님께 순복하는 일에 대한 권면
James 4:1–10: The letter says, “Where do wars and fightings among you come from? Don’t they come from your pleasures that war in your members? You lust, and don’t have. You murder and covet, and can’t obtain. You fight and make war. You don’t have, because you don’t ask. You ask, and don’t receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures. You adulterers and adulteresses, don’t you know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, ‘The Spirit who lives in us yearns jealously’? But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, ‘God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.’ Be subject therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners. Purify your hearts, you double-minded. Lament, mourn, and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he will exalt you.” At 4:4 the Korean Revised Version reads 간음하는 여자들이여 (adulteresses), where WEB reads “You adulterers and adulteresses”, and at 4:5 it reads 하나님이 우리 속에 거하게 하신 성령 (the Spirit whom God made to dwell in us), where WEB reads “The Spirit who lives in us”.
