When, according to prophecy, were men to amass great wealth?
Answer
"Go to now, you rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you. Your riches are
corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall
be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. You have heaped treasure together for the
last days." James 5: 1-3.
NOTE - We have reached the age of vast accumulations of wealth, when there seems to be a mad
rush for making money quickly, and the millionaire and the multimillionaire are much in evidence.
Speaking on this subject, Rev. H. W. Bowman, in his work "War Between Capital and Labor," says: "Such
colossal fortunes, such hoarding of treasures, such combinations of wealth, with such rapid increase in
poverty, were never witnessed before. Our age alone fits the prophetic mould."
