James 2:5-9

5Listen, my dear brothers and sisters: Didn’t God choose the poor in this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that he has promised to those who love him?

6Yet you have dishonored the poor. Don’t the rich oppress you and drag you into court?

7Don’t they blaspheme the good name that was invoked over you?

8Indeed, if you fulfill the royal law prescribed in the Scripture, Love your neighbor as yourself, you are doing well.

9If, however, you show favoritism, you commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
