nkjv James:2:1-13
nkjv@James:2:1 @ My brethren, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with partiality.
nkjv@James:2:2 @ For if there should come into your assembly a man with gold rings, in fine apparel, and there should also come in a poor man in filthy clothes,
nkjv@James:2:3 @ and you pay attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say to him, "You sit here in a good place," and say to the poor man, "You stand there," or, "Sit here at my footstool,"
nkjv@James:2:4 @ have you not shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
nkjv@James:2:5 @ Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?
nkjv@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you and drag you into the courts?
nkjv@James:2:7 @ Do they not blaspheme that noble name by which you are called?
nkjv@James:2:8 @ If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself," you do well;
nkjv@James:2:9 @ but if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
nkjv@James:2:10 @ For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all.
nkjv@James:2:11 @ For He who said, "Do not commit adultery," also said, "Do not murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.
nkjv@James:2:12 @ So speak and so do as those who will be judged by the law of liberty.
nkjv@James:2:13 @ For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
