6
And what he gives in love is far better than anything else you'll find. It's common knowledge that "God goes against the willful proud; God gives grace to the willing humble."
6
But He gives greater grace. Therefore He says: God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.
James 4:6 In-Context
4
You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.
5
Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell in us ?
6
But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.”
7
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
8
Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
