Tiago 5:1-6
Most people would like to be richer than they are. We don't like struggling to
make a living. There is no sin in being rich, although the Bible does warn us
against the "love of money" (1 Timothy 6:10). The Bible also warns us
of the dangers than accompany wealth.
FUTURAS MISÉRIAS - Vs. 1
James is calling the unsaved rich to repentance before it is too late.
FALSA SEGURANÇA - Vss. 2-3
The unsaved rich put their trust in their riches. Gold and silver do not exactly
rust (canker), but there will be a day when they will be useless. Matthew
6:19-21
FALTOSAS PRÁTICAS DE NEGÓCIO - Vs. 4
When money is the goal of your life it is easy to forget principles. In this
verse the example of a rich man cheating his employees is used. Leviticus 19:13,
Proverbs 3:27
FALSOS PRAZERES - Vs. 5
Look at some of the high-priced athletes who are loaded with money. They
squander money on foolish pleasure, because they have the money. Also see Luke
12:16-21
Being rich toward God is more important than pleasure. Matthew 6:28-33
FUSTIGANDO O INOCENTE - Vs. 6
Those who desire money, power and pleasure will stop at nothing to get what they
want. An example is the story of Ahab and Naboth found in 1 Kings 21.
