PROFILE OF ONE WHO
      BOASTS
              Jam 4:13
JAM 4:13
Now listen, you who say,
"Today or tomorrow we
will go to this or that
city, spend a year there,
carry on business and
make money."
PROBLEM OF ONE WHO
      BOASTS
              Jam 4:14
JAM 4:14
Why, you do not even
know what will happen
tomorrow. What is your
life? You are a mist that
appears for a little while
and then vanishes.
LUK 12:16
And he told them this
parable: "The ground of
a certain rich man
produced a good crop.
LUK 12:17
He thought to himself,
'What shall I do? I have
no place to store my
crops.'
LUK 12:18
"Then he said, 'This is
what I'll do. I will tear
down my barns and build
bigger ones, and there I
will store all my grain and
my goods.
LUK 12:19
And I'll say to myself,
"You have plenty of good
things laid up for many
years. Take life easy;
eat, drink and be
merry."'
LUK 12:19 (NASB)
'And I will say to my soul,
"Soul, you have many
goods laid up for many
years to come; take your
ease, eat, drink and be
merry."'
LUK 12:20
"But God said to him,
'You fool! This very night
your life will be
demanded from you. Then
who will get what you
have prepared for
yourself?'
LUK 12:21
"This is how it will be
with anyone who stores
up things for himself but
is not rich toward God."
JAM 4:14
Why, you do not even
know what will happen
tomorrow. What is your
life? You are a mist that
appears for a little while
and then vanishes.

PSA 90:12
Teach us to number our
days aright, that we may
gain a heart of wisdom.
       DON’T KILL TIME

I have only just a minute - only
  sixty seconds in it,
Forced upon me - can't refuse it,
Didn't seek it, didn't choose it,
But it's up to me to use it - give
  account if I abuse it;
Just a tiny little minute - but
  eternity is in it!
                   Cathedral in Milan




• All that which pleases is but for a moment.
• All that which troubles us is but for a moment.
• That only is important which is eternal.
PRESCRIPTION TO ONE WHO
         BOASTS
              Jam 4:14-17
JAM 4:15
Instead, you ought to
say, "If it is the Lord's
will, we will live and do
this or that."
JAM 4:16
As it is, you boast and
brag. All such boasting is
evil.
JAM 4:17
Anyone, then, who knows
the good he ought to do
and doesn't do it, sins.
DEUT 8:18
But remember the LORD
your God, for it is he
who gives you the ability
to produce wealth, and
so confirms his covenant,
which he swore to your
forefathers, as it is
today.
