Now the believer of humble means should take pride in his high position.
But the rich person’s pride should be in his humiliation, because he will pass away like a wildflower in the meadow.
For the sun rises with its heat and dries up the meadow; the petal of the flower falls off and its beauty is lost forever. So also the rich person in the midst of his pursuits will wither away.
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.
Let no one say when he is tempted,“I am tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.
But each one is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desires.
Then when desire conceives, it gives birth to sin, and when sin is full grown, it gives birth to death.
