James 5:6

What type of people are victims to the treachery of rich people? These victims are innocent men or righteous men. What's more is that they aren't even opposing or resisting these rich men who condemn and murder them. Whenever I hear Christians aspire to wealth, it always seems with the intent to give and serve with their riches. However, it is extremely rare to find such a person. Sure, they may donate a bit and serve in some capacity, but I feel as if their efforts could be done without being rich. The description James gives here should give little incentive to aspire to being rich. Yet, we think we can beat the odds in spite of what is written in the Word of God.
