Listen "124 - Thinking of the Future Biblically: James 4:13-17"
Episode Synopsis
In this week's episode, we dive into James 4:13-17 to examine this passage and answer the big questions that it raises about the future, decisions, and life in general.
First - Is it sinful to plan for the future?
Is it sinful to think about what college I will go to?
Is it sinful to consider what job I’d like to have?
Is it sinful to think about where I want to live and who I want to marry?
Is it sinful to think about retirement?
Further, verse 14 would make us ask another question - should I plan at all?
I don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow.
I don’t know how long my life will be, but I know it’s going to be short.
James 4:13-17 shows us that there is a Biblical and godly way to look into the future and it is centered around one phrase - "If the Lord will."
