WEB

📖 Read James 2

◀ Jam 2:8 Jam 2:10 ▶

But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.

Context

6But you have dishonored the poor man. Don’t the rich oppress you, and personally drag you before the courts?

7Don’t they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?

8However, if you fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well.

9But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.

10For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.

11For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not commit murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

12So speak and so do, as men who are to be judged by a law of freedom.
