Sermon Discussion Questions
- Review what Godly wisdom is as stated in James 3:17. What do we understand by a wisdom that is “full of mercy and good fruits”? What is it like to be someone filled with a wisdom that is full of mercy?
- When we are filled with Godly wisdom, we bear much good fruit. Can you name someone manifesting an abundance of good fruits in his life? What is special about such a person? Do you think you are bearing good fruit as well? What can you continue to do to live a life walking in Godly wisdom?
- God’s wisdom is without partiality. What is wrong about showing partiality? We see in Acts 10:34-35 that God shows no partiality and accepts all who fear Him and does what is right. What does this mean? How does this govern how we treat others?
- What is hypocrisy? What does God have to say about hypocrisy? Instead of living two different looking lives in public and in private, what can we do that will please God?
