Faith Works Series Andy Kvernen November 5, 2017 Privileged Beware! James 5:1-6 1. Warning against _________________________ – (v. 4)
2. Warning against _________________________ – (v. 5)
3. Warning against _________________________ – (v. 6)
To Go 1. If you find yourself in a place of privilege and are failing to heed the warnings of this text, repent (v. 1) and be forgiven. Note the example of Zacchaeus in Luke 19:1–10. 2. If you are suffering under the unjust authority or privilege of someone else, invite God to be your avenger (v. 2-3). Read Romans 12:18–20 and trust God’s timing and provision. 3. Following Christ means making Him our highest priority. Spend some time in Luke 14:25–33 and ask yourself, “Is there anything I’m holding back from God?” Is there anything I’m clinging to more than him? If the answer is yes, invite God to help you renounce your possessions and follow His Son with everything that you have and everything that you are.
