James:2:1-13




jub@James:2:1 @ My brethren, do not have the faith of our Lord Jesus, the glorious Christ, with respect of persons.

jub@James:2:2 @ For if a man with a gold ring and in precious apparel comes into your synagogue and a poor person in vile raiment also comes in,

jub@James:2:3 @ and ye have respect to him that wears the precious clothing and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there or sit here under my footstool:

jub@James:2:4 @ Are ye not then judging in yourselves and are become judges of evil thoughts?

jub@James:2:5 @ Hearken, my beloved brethren, Has not God chosen the poor of this world [that they might be] rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to those that love him?

jub@James:2:6 @ But ye have despised the poor. Do not the rich oppress you with tyranny and draw you [with violence] to the courts?

jub@James:2:7 @ Do they not blaspheme that worthy name by which ye are called?

jub@James:2:8 @ If ye truly fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well;

jub@James:2:9 @ but if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin and are accused of the law as rebels.

jub@James:2:10 @ For whosoever shall have kept the whole law, and then offends in one [point] is made guilty of all.

jub@James:2:11 @ For he that said, Thou shalt not commit adultery, said also, Thou shalt not murder. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou [commit] murder, thou art become a transgressor of the law.

jub@James:2:12 @ So speak ye and so do as those that shall be judged by the law of liberty.

jub@James:2:13 @ For judgment without mercy shall be done unto the one that has showed no mercy; and mercy boasts against judgment.
