Misuse of Riches

5Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries which are coming upon you.G33G3568G4145G2799G3649G1909G5216G5004G19042Your riches have rotted and your garments have become moth-eaten.G5216G4149G4595G2532G5216G2440G1096G45983Your gold and your silver have rusted; and their rust will be a witness against you and will consume your flesh like fire. It is in the last days that you have stored up your treasure!G5216G5557G2532G696G2728G2532G2447G846G2071G3142G1519G5213G2532G5315G5216G4561G5613G4442G2343G1722G2078G22504Behold, the pay of the laborers who mowed your fields, [and] which has been withheld by you, cries out [against you]; and the outcry of those who did the harvesting has reached the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.G2400G3408G2040G3588G270G5216G5561G3588G575G5216G650G2896G2532G995G2325G1525G1519G3775G2962G45195You have lived luxuriously on the earth and led a life of wanton pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.G5171G1909G1093G2532G4684G5142G5216G2588G5613G1722G2250G49676You have condemned and put to death the righteous [man;] he does not resist you.G2613G5407G1342G498G3756G498G5213

Exhortation

7Be patient, therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious produce of the soil, being patient about it, until it gets the early and late rains.G3114G3767G80G2193G3952G2962G2400G1092G1551G5093G2590G1093G3114G1909G846G2193G302G2983G4406G2532G3797G52058You too be patient; strengthen your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.G3114G5210G2532G3114G4741G5216G2588G3754G3952G2962G14489Do not complain, brethren, against one another, that you yourselves may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing right at the door.G4727G3361G2596G240G80G3363G2632G2400G2923G2476G4253G237410As an example, brethren, of suffering and patience, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.G2983G3450G80G4396G3739G2980G3686G2962G5262G2552G2532G311511Behold, we count those blessed who endured. You have heard of the endurance of Job and have seen the outcome of the Lord's dealings, that the Lord is full of compassion and [is] merciful.G2400G3106G5278G191G5281G2492G2532G1492G5056G2962G3754G2962G2076G4184G2532G362912But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath; but let your yes be yes, and your no, no; so that you may not fall under judgment.G1161G4253G3956G3450G80G3660G3361G3383G3772G3383G1093G3383G5100G243G3727G1161G2277G5216G3483G2277G3483G2532G3756G3756G3363G4098G1519G527213Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praises.G2553G5100G1722G5213G2553G4336G2114G5100G2114G556714Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;G770G5100G770G1722G5213G4341G4245G1577G2532G4336G1909G846G218G846G1637G1722G3686G296215and the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him.G2532G2171G4102G4982G2577G2532G2962G1453G846G1453G2579G5600G4160G266G863G84616Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.G1843G3900G240G2532G2172G240G5228G240G3704G2390G1754G1162G1342G2480G418317Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain; and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months.G2243G2258G444G3663G2254G2532G4336G4335G1026G3361G1026G2532G1026G3756G1909G1093G5140G1763G2532G1803G337618And he prayed again, and the sky poured rain, and the earth produced its fruit.G2532G4336G3825G2532G3772G1325G5205G2532G1093G985G846G259019My brethren, if any among you strays from the truth, and one turns him back,G80G1437G5100G1722G5213G4105G575G225G2532G5100G1994G84620let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death, and will cover a multitude of sins.G1097G846G1097G3754G1994G268G1537G4106G846G3598G4982G5590G1537G2288G2532G2572G4128G266
