James makes it clear that many quarrels come about because Christian people are not learning wisdom from God. Instead they have never let go of the wisdom of this world.Faith That Works: James has been called the New Testament Book of Proverbs. It is a book of wisdom for Christians - wisdom that is evident in our conduct. We are reminded that wisdom is more than just what we know. Wisdom shines through our speech, works, humility, prayers and patience through troubles. So for those who need wisdom - God has an endless supply to give.
