THE CRIES OF THE REAPERS HAVE REACHED THE EARS OF THE LORD OF SABAOTH (James 5:4).
The second sin James attacks is acquiring wealth by failure to pay proper wages. He who commands the armies of heaven is strong on behalf of earth's downtrodden masses. The Lord God Omnipotent will help and avenge them. The Word of God not only condemns the hoarding of wealth, but the acqusition of wealth by dishonest means. In addition to the sin of paying inadequate wages, James could have also mentioned falsifying income tax returns, cheating on weights and measures, bribing local inspectors or other officials, false advertising, and falsifying expense accounts.
