James 5:1-11
Such rich people weep and wail, for they have hoarded wealth in the last day. 1)Failed to pay the workmen,2) Lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. 3)Condemned and murdered innocent men, who were not opposing you.
Be patient, brothers, and stand firm until the Lord's coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield it valuable crop and how patient he is for the autumn and spring rains.
A an example of patience in the face of suffering, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. We considered blessed those who have persevered.
The Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
Why?
Rich is not sin but if he earned money by failing pay to the workmen or self-indulgence and condemned innocent men. Those person will weep and wail for their god and silver. All of these will be useless at the last days.
To be a Christian have to be patient and stand until the Lord's coming. Patient make us really know what the love of Lord and his mercy and our faith is in Him.
Blessed are those who have persevered, these blessing is in heaven, sometime on earth have blessing also. For our Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
Our life is short in these world. focus on the heaven, then we may persevere all these suffering.
The life is so pleasant that they forget the day of reckoning. But God sees and hears all.
How?
Work and do for the Lord almighty, Be patient and stand firm with joy. We are blessed for the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
