James 5:9-11
KJV 9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be
condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door. 10 Take,
my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the
Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.
11 Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of
the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the
Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
WEB 9 Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you
won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door. 10 Take,
brothers, for an example of suffering and of patience, the
prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. 11 Behold, we call
them blessed who endured. You have heard of the patience of Job,
and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full
of compassion and mercy.
These are my thoughts, please share yours.
9 We should not cause trouble for one another, back talk each
but work together. God is to be our judge, while we shouldn’t
accept a brother or sister turning to sin we are to walk the
fine line of helping them and let God be the one who judges.
10 We will suffer as Christians, this world may hate us because
of Him, and we may have them act in their hate. Living for Him
and good turns people against us. We have to keep walking and
stand strong in Him thru the faith we have.
11 Overcoming thru the Lord brings joy even in times of trials.
Him being in control gives us a peace in the midst of chaos. We
need to lean and rely and trust Him, submit to His leadership
and even the world comes against us we are blessed by His
presence, that is the joy he speaks and of and one that the
believer can have.
