While continuing in the book of James of our "Faith & Action" series, today Pastor Ben speaks about a subject that most people don't like to talk about..."money." Now, before you quit reading and tune out, hear me out...this is not one of those tired old "send me your money" teachings that you might hear elsewhere. In fact, today's teaching about money is in reference to the way that the Word of God speaks of it...for it to be used as a tool for God's Glory. If you could speak to Jesus in person, what would He suggest that you do with it? Are you using it for His Glory and Honor? How do you use it to bless others?...OR...Are you hoarding it and making it your idol? Are you using it for the sake of profits and to live in luxury? What is your attitude towards money? * Two very important questions that you should keep in mind: 1. How are you using your wealth? 2. How are you acquiring your wealth? *Reference scriptures: Mark 10:23-25: James 4:15; Acts 18 If you are interested in attending our LIVE teachings (Wednesdays @ 7:00 pm & Sundays @ 10:00 am), you are invited to visit us at 4218 Boston Ave. Lubbock, Texas.

I want to start off today with a warning to any & all the KC chiefs fans out there who may hear this sermon. Something’s been bothering me. I've had enough of your constant bragging about Patrick Mahomes & all your winning. This is a firm warning to all of you, to tone it down, and depart from your arrogance before it’s too late. You always boast about how good your quarterback is, and your Super Bowl rings. You think you’re the king of the NFL. But let me tell you about another group of people who once felt invincible like they owned football—Patriots fans. With Tom Brady & Coach Belichick, they were unstoppable, winning Super Bowls even bending the rules—allegedly. In the end, what happened? Judgment day arrived. Brady left New England, and suddenly, the dynasty crumbled. And where did Tom end up? That's right, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the team with the worst all-time winning % in history. And what happened? Oh yeah…. WE WON THE SUPERBOWL THAT YEAR! So, listen up you pompous, smug Chiefs fans. One day, it will be Mahomes jetting off to Tampa, and we'll be the ones celebrating. So, you should prepare for it now. Dispense with your arrogant cheering, and let it turn to weeping and mourning. Judgement day is coming. Your trophies will tarnish. You’ll join Patriots fans in bitter sorrow & jealousy when in the end, we prevail. What you just heard is a modern-day example of a literary tool used often in Jewish wisdom literature, called a diatribe. In a diatribe, the author addresses a hypothetical 3rd -party directly & forcefully to teach a principle to his real audience. My diatribe was directed towards Chiefs fans who aren’t in the room, designed to encourage righteous Bucs fans, like me, to stay loyal, stay faithful, because in the end we will win another Super Bowl. James uses a diatribe to expose the seductive power of wealth & why the faithful can’t allow money to become an idol. (James 5:1-6) Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you. Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have corroded and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure in the last days. Behold the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. You have lived on the earth in luxury and in self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. You have condemned and murdered the righteous person. He does not resist you.

This sermon's passage is the harshest warning against the misuse of wealth in all of Scripture. Money is one of the chief, if not the chief, competitor for our affections. It promises security, comfort, enjoyment. So what is the balance of using it while keeping Jesus as our priority and source of satisfaction? Listen and take the challenge.

Weep and Howl - A Scary Sermon

James challenges our worldly perspectives on wealth--is it good or bad or neither? Are money and possessions for our enjoyment and benefit or for the good of others and the pursuit of God's Kingdom? James offers a word of stern warning, assesses the real worth of our "stuff", and gives us an audit of our practices in how we view and handle wealth.

In today’s passage James dons the mantle of prophet and delivers an oracle of judgment against “the rich” - the cultural ‘haves' who were leveraging their wealth to oppress the cultural ‘have nots’ that are the less fortunate, including many Christians. James delivers a stern warning in which their materialism and gross ambivalence and abuse of others is addressed. But what does this passage have to say to those inside the church? Join us as we explore James’s warning to the wealthy!

Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Charleston, SC, seeks to be a church that's Becoming Community in Christ. Assistant Pastor John Song preached from James 5 focusing on the righteous anger of James with "rich people." James calls out the "rich people" for hiding behind their wealth instead of trusting in Jesus. Wealth is a great tool of life but a terrible rule of life.

Inserting himself into a long line of Old Testament prophetic tradition, James proclaims the dreadful fate of the rich aristocratic tyrants who were oppressing God’s people. As we listen to James’ denouncement, we discover that the same obsession with wealth & possessions can manifest in our lives and that money can be a significant hurdle on our journey following Jesus – no one can serve two masters. Being confronted with the futility of the pursuit of wealth, we’re reminded of our call to steward our money wisely, knowing that we’re living on the brink of eternal life in the new heavens & the new earth.

Message Discussion Guide - 7.26.20 Read James 5:1-3 with your group. · James begins a new section of his letter in which he harshly condemns "you rich" people. He begins by warning them of misery headed their way. Why do you think James issues such a stern warning? · James describes a group of people who have hoarded their wealth. Is James condemning the very possession of wealth? Look at James 1:9-11. · Do you consider yourself wealthy? Why or why not? · Do you agree that money can be dangerous? Read James 5:4-6 with your group. · Now that we’ve read this passage, let’s look at James’ main point. James describes the ways these people have trusted in their wealth and it has led to some serious sin. · Devon said “The reason why money is so dangerous is because it can quickly become the thing we trust most.” Have you ever found yourself putting trust in wealth alone? What happens when that is the case? · What do you think it means that our hearts follow our treasure? · If you are a follower of Jesus, do you think that means we should use our wealthy differently? How so? · If your bank account is the best account, what does it say about you right now? · How does Christ set us free from the worldly way of consumption and hoarding of wealth?

James 5:1-6

James addresses the corrupt rich, warning them of their coming judgement, not based on their level of income but their character. Do we mirror their character with our wealth?

The NFL season, most college schedules, include a bye week, a week they dont play. I hate bye week. Well, what if I told you James has a bye week in the schedule. Thatd be good news because hes been beating us up every week, and he will beat someone up today, but not us. Now, I wouldnt trust me saying that, but lets see. Read James 5:1-6.
