Matthew 24:12 Cross References - MNT
James 4:1-4
1 Where do the conflicts and quarrels that go on among you come from? Do they not come from your passions which are always making war among your bodily members?
2 You continually crave and do not obtain; you are killing and coveting and cannot acquire; you are fighting and at war. You do not have, because you do not ask.
3 You continue to ask and do not receive, because you are asking with a wrong purpose, in order to spend it upon your pleasures.
4 You adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity to God? Whoever, then, desires to be a friend of the world, makes himself and enemy of God.
James 5:1-6
1 Go to now, you rich men! Weep aloud, howl for the miseries which are about to come upon you!

3 Your gold and silver are rusted. and their rust will be for a testimony against you, and it will eat your flesh. For you have been storing up fire in these last days!
4 Look! the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you have been keeping back by fraud, are crying aloud! And the cries of the reapers have entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth!
5 You have lived luxuriously on earth, you have taken your pleasure, you have fattened your hearts for a day of slaughter.
6 You have condemned, you have murdered the righteous man unresisting!
