Podcasts about scripture: james 5:7-5:12

College Hill Presbyterian Church

The sermon addresses human tendencies to panic and excessively prepare during uncertain times, using historical examples like the Great Depression and COVID-19. Drawing from James 5:7-12, it emphasizes that Christians should wait with active patience, like a farmer, rather than with passivity or grumbling. Believers are encouraged to trust in God's judgment and timing, allowing their faith to foster patience, compassion, and hope.

While continuing in the book of James of our "Faith & Action" series, today Pastor Ben speaks about power in patience. How can we as Christians experience this kind of patience and endurance as we wait for the lord? * three main points that the scripture will revel this question to us 1. farmer 2. old testament prophets 3. saint Job *Reference scriptures: Leviticus 9:13; 1 Timothy 6:17: Romans 12:17-21; Acts 22:14; John 17:7; Ephesians 5:17; John 15:15; Romans 12:2; Ephesians 6:6 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.

Have you ever wondered if your faith is strong enough to endure real persecution & suffering because you follow Jesus? I’m not talking your garden variety 1st world American “bad day”, I’m talking about real suffering. Do you have what it takes to be faithful to Jesus no matter what circumstances life might visit upon you? Have you ever come to a place where you just weren’t sure that your faith was strong enough? Do you wonder if you personally have what it might take if your loyalty to God & His church was really tested? The answer is, no! No, you don’t. In fact, no human who has ever lived has had that kind of faith. So, wait, now what? Yet all through scripture, we’re commanded to have that kind of durable, steadfast faith, no matter what we face. So, what does this mean? What do we do with a seemingly unreasonable command, that’s humanly impossible to keep? That’s precisely the question we’ll wrestle with together, as we explore the next test of our ropes of faith in James. (JAMES 5:7–11) BE PATIENT, THEREFORE, BROTHERS, UNTIL THE COMING OF THE LORD. SEE HOW THE FARMER WAITS FOR THE PRECIOUS FRUIT OF THE EARTH, BEING PATIENT ABOUT IT, UNTIL IT RECEIVES THE EARLY AND THE LATE RAINS. [8] YOU ALSO, BE PATIENT. ESTABLISH YOUR HEARTS, FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD IS AT HAND. [9] DO NOT GRUMBLE AGAINST ONE ANOTHER, BROTHERS, SO THAT YOU MAY NOT BE JUDGED; BEHOLD, THE JUDGE IS STANDING AT THE DOOR. [10] AS AN EXAMPLE OF SUFFERING AND PATIENCE, BROTHERS, TAKE THE PROPHETS WHO SPOKE IN THE NAME OF THE LORD. [11] BEHOLD, WE CONSIDER THOSE BLESSED WHO REMAINED STEADFAST. YOU HAVE HEARD OF THE STEADFASTNESS OF JOB, AND YOU HAVE SEEN THE PURPOSE OF THE LORD, HOW THE LORD IS COMPASSIONATE AND MERCIFUL. [12] SO ABOVE ALL, MY BROTHERS, DON’T SWEAR, EITHER BY HEAVEN OR EARTH OR OTHER OATH, BUT LET YOUR “YES” BE YES & YOUR “NO” BE NO, SO YOU MAY NOT FALL UNDER CONDEMNATION.

Jesus is Coming... Get Busy

James' original audience felt they were living in the last days. It was a time of uncertainty, fraught with dangers and difficulties, and it seemed as if things couldn’t get worse. 2,000 years later, we often wonder the same thing! As we face uncertain times, concerned about our own current difficulties and potential dangers, we wonder if these are the last days. How are we to live in uncertain times? How should we live in light of the fact that Jesus will return at a time we won't expect? How can we live knowing that any day could be our last on this earth? James shares 3 essential qualities we must possess to live well in the last days.

Patience reveals a LOT of human nature. Are we self centered? Others Centered? God centered? How do we get it without going crazy when we have to practice it…do we really want it in the first place? James concludes his letter with a passage on patience, what we should do AND what we shouldn’t do with it! Now…the real question is, “Who REALLY wants it?

Writing to Christians experiencing various troubles, James encourages his readers to bear in mind that Jesus is coming soon. How does the return of Christ inform and shape our behavior in the troubles of our present lives? Join us as we explore this passage together!

When Opportunity Knocks #12- Christmas Eve 2018

Hope Fellowship Church Nov 18 – 24, 2018 ========== James: Instead, Be Patient James is a book of timeless wisdom for practical living. It tackles real issues and struggles, that we will face in life, like temptation, wisdom, self-control, anger, arrogance, suffering, and so much more. James challenges our character and calls us to action directed by our faith. James takes principles and makes them practical. ========== James 5:7-11 Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. Do not grumble against one another, brothers, so that you may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing at the door. As an example of suffering and patience, brothers, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. Behold, we consider those blessed who remained steadfast. You have heard of the steadfastness of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful. 1. What are the characteristics of Biblical Patience? James 5:7-8 Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. a. Patience has a certain “purpose” in our spiritual growth. · There is being patient “over” something. · There is being patient “until” something else. What do you value? Being patient “over” something and then being patient “until” something else, results in waiting with hope. b. Patience has a certain “hope” in the Second Advent. Jeremiah 5:23-24 But this people has a stubborn and rebellious heart; they have turned aside and gone away. They do not say in their hearts, 'Let us fear the Lord our God, who gives the rain in its season, the autumn rain and the spring rain, and keeps for us the weeks appointed for the harvest.' Deuteronomy 11:13-14 "And if you will indeed obey my commandments that I command you today, to love the Lord your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul, he will give the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the later rain, that you may gather in your grain and your wine and your oil. Patience is based on the faithfulness of God. c. Patience has a certain “posture” in our conduct. James 5:8 You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. 2. How do we practice Biblical Patience? James 5:9 Do not grumble against one another, brothers, so that you may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing at the door. Hebrews 13:17 Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you. James 5:10-11 As an example of suffering and patience, brothers, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. Behold, we consider those blessed who remained steadfast. You have heard of the steadfastness of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful. · Suffering · Perseverance · Blessing Exodus 34:6 The Lord passed before him and proclaimed, "The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness, Psalms 103:8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. Polysplanchnos: What does it look like when we practice Biblical patience? 3. Any attempt to bargain with God is a denial of grace. James 5:12 But above all, my brothers, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or by any other oath, but let your "yes" be yes and your "no" be no, so that you may not fall under condemnation.

Patience is more about your attitude than it is just waiting.

Patience has always been difficult, but it has to be harder for a person in the modern world with instant everything at our finger tips: from the Microwave to Google. Maybe the hardest thing to wait for is justice. Waiting for wrongs to be made right. Waiting for a person to stop doing the harm they are doing. Waiting for God to come fix things. That can be an awful, painful waiting. And that is a place James says we need to put our faith in gear. Turn with me today to James 5:7-12.
