«Pero si tenéis celos amargos y contención en vuestro corazón, no os jactéis, ni mintáis contra la verdad» (Santiago 3:14).

En esta epístola, encontramos varios errores que existían entre los creyentes del primer siglo. Desafortunadamente, en algunas congregaciones existía un favoritismo que llevaba a algunos a dar preferencia a los ricos e influyentes de su cultura mientras menospreciaban a los demás (2:1-13). En otros casos, había guerras y pleitos impulsados por la codicia y los malos deseos (4:1-4). Todos estos problemas están resumidos aquí como celos amargos y contención. Todavía hoy en día, existen estos mismos problemas entre cristianos, pero uno de nuestros mayores problemas es que todos tenemos la tendencia de intentar ignorar o excusar el pecado. Santiago aquí nos advierte de la tendencia humana de jactar. Nos es fácil llegar a convencernos a nosotros mismos de que no somos como las demás personas. Podemos llegar a ser como el fariseo en la parábola de Jesús que daba gracias a Dios que no era como aquel despreciable publicano a su lado. El otro error que comenta Santiago es el de mentir contra la verdad, o sea, negar la realidad. La única manera de derrotar la sabiduría terrenal, animal y diabólica es mediante el arrepentimiento. Cuando reconocemos nuestro pecado por lo que es, estamos en la posición de pedir la sabiduría que es de lo alto.

Evitemos hoy la jactancia y la mentira; sólo nos llevarán al conflicto y a la amargura que caracterizan la sabiduría de abajo. Pero en humildad, pidamos que Dios nos llene con su sabiduría para que vivamos en paz con Él y en la medida posible, también con los que nos rodean. (David Bell)

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
