James 2:5-9
James 2:5
Listen, my beloved brothers and sisters: did God not choose the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?
James 2:6
But you have dishonored the poor man. Is it not the rich who oppress you and personally drag you into court?
James 2:7
Do they not blaspheme the good name by which you have been called?
James 2:8
If, however, you are fulfilling the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing well.
James 2:9
But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the Law as violators.
