Warning to the Rich
5:1 Come now, you rich! Weep and cry aloud over the miseries that are coming on you.
James 1:10-12

So also the rich person in the midst of his pursuits will wither away.
1:12 Happy is the one
who endures testing, because when he has proven to be genuine, he will receive the crown of life that God
promised to those who love him.
