Humble, Patient, Enduring - James 5:1-12

[@thespeechgir]

Wow! David preaches with such clarity and insight. Thank you for this!

[@MikeAcousticMusic]

I am now listening to this sermon. Thankful for this and I also wanted to share this excerpt seeing as how this correlates. I just heard the sermon and now I'm listening to this one. I hope this also blesses. ----- Brothers and sisters, we do not know who will be blessed by our pains, by our bereavements, by our crosses, if we have patience under them. Specially is this the case with God’s ministers, if He means to make much of them-their path to usefulness is up the craggy mountain’s side. If we are to comfort God’s afflicted people, we must first be afflicted ourselves. Tribulation will make our wheat fit to be bread for saints. Adversity is the choicest book in our library, printed in black letters, but grandly illuminated. Job makes a glorious comforter and preacher of patience, but no one turns either to Bildad, Zophar, or Eliphaz, who were “miserable comforters” because they had never been miserable. ----- Excerpt from Sermon #3255 The Pearl of Patience

Many thanks for the reminder to wait patiently for our Lord to bring an eternal resolution when all wrongs will be made right.

O Lamb of God, it is your blood that takes away the sin-debt of the world, even of every one who believes on your name. We could not bear the punishment of our sin, nor endure the day of God's wrath against sin. We praise you for your work of love on the cross, where you redeemed us from the curse of the Law. Amen YAHWEH Rebukes all in All Shalom Hallelujah 👣🔥💔💤🚦💯🩸😘🌀🚑🚒🚕🚓💚🚜🍇🌪️💀🐬🐫🦈🐛🐝🕊️🐌🐍⚕️🫰🎺⛽.

Thank you for your videos. We are living in some difficult times. However, if we are trusting Jesus we have hope. The Lord tells us to go out into the world and give the greatest news, the greatest gift ever given. He gives hope to the hopeless. Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. One day we will take our last breath here on this side of eternity. Our soul will live for all eternity, and we need to make a choice on this side, before our last breath. If we reject Jesus we will go into hell a firey pit. If we trust and accept Jesus we will have a home in Heaven for all eternity John 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Please call upon Jesus today.

It seems the reason the first century church believed in an imminent coming of the Lord is because Jesus and every inspired apostle informed them that His coming was about to take place, it was near, shortly and soon. Jesus told His disciples that everything He taught in the Olivet Discourse would take place before that generation came to an end. Peter wrote that the end of all things was near (1 Pet. 4:7). James, as we read in this passage (James 5:1-12), wrote to the twelve tribes scattered abroad telling them that they were living in the last days, a day of slaughter, and that they should be patient waiting for the coming of the Lord. He went on to assert that it was near, the Judge was at that time standing at the door. John wrote several times explicitly stating that the end was imminent. He informed his audiences that they knew they were living in the last hour (1 John 2:18). He would later write to the seven churches that the prophecies of Revelation “must shortly take place…for the time is near.” He made these claims at both the beginning and end of the book (Rev. 1:1,3; 22:6,10). Even Paul taught the Roman Christians that they knew the time, it was already the hour, salvation was nearer, and the day was near (Rom. 13:11-12). If we are to leave Jesus and the apostles any credibility we must accept their time statements. If we choose to reject them, we can reject any or all of their other claims. Trust them, trust the time frame presented, and apply the principle of audience relevance in order to understand the context of Scripture.

First, I would like to tell you how much i appreciate you creating this video commentary free for all. I, along with another commentor are doing a CBS bible study. Once I finish the weekly study, I listen to what you have to say about the portion of scripture. When you gave the 3 verses where God himself swore an oath you cited Hebrews 1:73, 3:11 and 6:13. I could not locate 1:73. It does not in any way affect the teaching.

[@DavidGuzikEnduringWord]

Hi Karen! Thank you for pointing out that mistake. It should be Hebrews 7:21!

[@annatevesbanzon1359]

Please pray for my son. For protection in Jesus name amen 🙏 🙌

[@DavidGuzikEnduringWord]

Praying for your Son!

[@joyrhooms3854]

Amen.

James appeal to the farmer presumes that the same farmer who witnesses the early rain also sees the latter and receives the first fruits and the full harvest. He was not saying that one farmer would see the early then another some two thousand years later would see the latter and the harvest. Take James at his word when he wrote to his first century audience between AD 50-65, “the coming of the Lord is near, the Judge is standing at the door.” The God who is a warrior, as you stated, came in judgment in those last days culminating in the events leading up to and including AD 70.

[@promisesrkept]

Can you provide the passages that state that Jesus, James and Paul all “knew and told us that every generation should live with the expectation of the return of Jesus.” In fact, they all taught in the context of their audiences and an imminent time frame. Their audiences trusted them as inspired writers to proclaim trustworthy prophecies in the name of God. So, if you and I had been living in that generation we would have rightfully believed the coming of the Lord was about to take place, it was near, shortly and soon, because that’s what we were being taught. If we can reject the clear time statements of each inspired apostle about the timing of the Lord’s coming, why should we accept any other word that was written by these men? Trust the inspired word written to a living audience during the last days of Old Covenant Israel’s age.

[@melissarhea149]

Been listening to this ... And rewound and rewound but when you say as an example for an angelic being???? What's an angelic being????????

[@DavidGuzikEnduringWord]

Angelic beings are forms of angelic life - such as ophanim, seraphim, cherubim, which are mentioned by name in the Bible. Just as human beings can mean any number of different humans. The Bible mentions angelic beings in several verses. Here are some notable ones: 1) Psalm 91:11: "For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways." 2) Hebrews 1:14: "Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?" 3) Matthew 4:11: "Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him." 4) Luke 1:19: "And the angel answered and said to him, ‘I am Gabriel, who stands in the presence of God, and was sent to speak to you and bring you these glad tidings.’" 5) Revelation 5:11: "Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands." These verses reflect various roles that angels play, such as messengers, protectors, and worshipers.

Alright richest is not against God's sight but only the Richman like the one who treated Lazarus rite,! than I think we can't restore our richest instead for heaven literally but instead unless we gave to the poor like the verse say , suppose we said to the poor , go and sleep soundly God will bless you but if we didn't give any things to eat or clothes for their bodies than it same as one rich people whom James is talking about rite! You people of America are mostly riches ,do you ever think of yourself how blessed you are but instead many churches are running or asking donation in the name of the Lord like$,10 only but you know what? $,10 is more than Rs,850 including taxes if just $,10 is to be donate to some organisations so instead so why donate $,10 each among you and send it to some poor groups in poorer country and that will be brotherhood in Christ rite? Anyways I had learnt the good lesson and I don't mean any misinterpreted from you but I just mean most rich preacher skip the actions that should be done alright ,no one transform their richness for heavenly treasure unless they don't acts rite🤗, may God forgive if I had hurts someone feelings 🙏🙏🙏
