The rich oppressors: injustice and greed
5:1-6
7 Be patient, then, brothers, until the Lord's coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop and how patient he is for the autumn and spring rains. 8 You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord's coming is near. 9 Don't grumble against each other, brothers, or you will be judged. The Judge is standing at the door!
10 Brothers, as an example of patience in the face of suffering, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. 11 As you know, we consider blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of Job's perseverance and have seen what the Lord finally brought about. The Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
12 Above all, my brothers, do not swear—not by heaven or by earth or by anything else. Let your "Yes" be yes, and your "No," no, or you will be condemned.

Impatience is in first, on top, at the front…

What would you do if you knew Jesus was coming tonight?
What would you do if you knew Jesus was coming tonight?
What’s stopping you doing it?
I would plant a tree
I'd let everything else go and make sure I was "prayed up." Then, I'd call my family and friends and tell them the urgency of accepting Jesus as saviour.
Not Applicable.
He's not coming, he never came, and he never will come.
Cancel my party room reservation for December 21, 2012.
Better get on with those dishes.
Nothing. I try to be ready whenever He comes.
I would not go to sleep tonight.........I would stay awake.........and sing Holy, Holy, Holy, Come Oh Lord.
I'd be staring out my window and praying.
Would fix the hair, cosmetics, possible shower. Pack all the bare necessities
Get my ghostbusting equipment.
Party Time with some good lookin' ladies! May as well go out with a smile on my face!
Put all my online sales accounts on vacation, make sure my husband knows where our wills are, and write goodbye notes for my kids.
I would quickly go back into my bank account online and cancel all of the bill payments I just made.
