James 2:8,9



James 2:8,9 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. Sometimes this is called the Golden Rule, but here James calls it the Royal Law. James calls it the Royal Law because it comes from King Jesus. And He is the King of kings and Lord of lords! So when the King looks over His subjects, do you think that He likes to see them getting along with each other? I do. We are all subjects of King Jesus. Rich or poor; smart or simple; beautiful or plain; handsome or ugly; ripped or wimpy; clever or boring; energetic or laid back. Jesus loves us all and we are all important to His plan for us all. When we are critical of others, we are critical of their Maker, because God made us as we are. So, love everyone and enjoy their individuality.
