James 5 Summary ~ Mo' Money, Mo' Problems     Listen
up, rich folks: God is not amused with you.  Major bad times
are coming your way. All your wealth will rot. Your fancy designer
clothes are gonna be eaten by moths. Your gold and silver coins are
gonna rust. Then the rust is gonna eat away at your skin like fire.
Yeah. It's gonna be pretty miserable. It's bad enough that you
hoarded money, says James, but you didn't even come by your cash
honestly. The folks you've cheated out of their hard-earned dollars
have appealed to God and he's heard them. You lived in the lap of
luxury during your time on Earth, but all that will be over
soon.  But believers (who we're assuming aren't rich) should
just be patient. Jesus will be coming back anytime now.  Wait
for him like a farmer waits for his crops to grow, says James. You
know they're coming. It's just a matter of finding the right time.
Stay strong and don't start complaining about everyone else.
Otherwise you're gonna be judged. Big time. If you're looking for
examples of folks who have done it right, look no further than the
prophets of the Hebrew Bible. Especially Job. These guys faced
tough times, but they kept on keeping on.  Also, when you say
something, really commit to it. Seriously, no means no and yes
means yes.  God will totally forgive you if you take
responsibility when you come up short. Everyone should also pray
for each other. Prayer can be pretty powerful. Elijah prayed that
it wouldn't rain, and not a single drop fell for three years and
six months.   And if any believer stops believing, the
rest of the community can try to win him back. After all, scooping
up lost sheep is one of God's favorite pastimes. On that
note—bye-bye! See you on the flip side! Thanks to www.shmoop.co
