Thoughts on the Lectionary for the Fourth Sunday after Easter

From the Epistle Lesson: St. James 1:17-21

Vs: 19 "Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath"

James has been speaking here of the good gifts of God that He bestows on us who are his children. He has said that the unchanging God has “begotten” us of His own will by the word of His truth, and because of this we are to be an example to the world. A picture of what the “firstfruits” of God’s creatures look like. Because of this we as Christians should be all the more diligent to cast away filthy and selfish living. Let us be ever ready to hear the word of God and the pleas of our neighbor. Let us not always be quick to insist upon our opinions and ideas to be heard. And may we always have our anger in check, leaving Wrath to God who always judges right
