rwbs - James:2

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

rwbs@James:2:2 @ For if there come into your assembly a man with a gold ring, in fine apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment; (note:)assembly: Gr. synagogue(:note)

rwbs@James:2:3 @ And ye have respect to him that weareth the fine clothing, and say to him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool: (note:)in…: or, well, or, seemly(:note)

rwbs@James:2:4 @ Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?

rwbs@James:2:5 @ Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him? (note:)of the: or, of that(:note)

rwbs@James:2:6 @ But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?

rwbs@James:2:7 @ Do they not blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called? (note:)blaspheme: or, revile, or, slander(:note)

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

rwbs@James:2:9 @ But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

rwbs@James:2:10 @ For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one, he is guilty of all.

rwbs@James:2:11 @ For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou committest no adultery, yet if thou killest, thou art become a transgressor of the law. (note:)he that: or, that law which(:note)

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

rwbs@James:2:13 @ For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shown no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment. (note:)rejoiceth: or, glorieth(:note)

rwbs@James:2:14 @ What profit, my brethren, though a man saith he hath faith, and hath not works? can faith save him?

rwbs@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister is naked, and destitute of daily food,

rwbs@James:2:16 @ And one of you saith to them, Depart in peace, be warmed and filled; but ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what profit?

rwbs@James:2:17 @ Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. (note:)alone: Gr. by itself(:note)

rwbs@James:2:18 @ But, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: show me thy faith without thy works, and I will show thee my faith by my works. (note:)without: some copies read, by(:note)

rwbs@James:2:19 @ Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the demons also believe, and tremble.

rwbs@James:2:20 @ But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?

rwbs@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?

rwbs@James:2:22 @ Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? (note:)Seest…: or, Thou seest(:note)

rwbs@James:2:23 @ And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.

rwbs@James:2:24 @ Ye see then that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.

rwbs@James:2:25 @ Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent out another way?

rwbs@James:2:26 @ For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. (note:)spirit: or, breath(:note)
