James 4:4-6

4Adulterers, do you not know that friendship with the world means hostility toward God? So whoever decides to be the world’s friend makes himself God’s enemy.

5Or do you think the scripture means nothing when it says, “The spirit that God caused to live within us has an envious yearning”?

6But he gives greater grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud, but he gives grace to the humble.”
