2:1 My brethren, show no partiality as you hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory. #BlackLivesMatter

2:10-11 For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it. For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” said also, “Do not kill.” If you do not commit adultery but do kill, you have become a transgressor of the law.

[James @James11145673]

2:8-9 If you really fulfil the royal law, according to the scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well. But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors. #BLACK_LIVES_MATTER #VOTE

2:6-7 But you have dishonored the poor man. Is it not the rich who oppress you, is it not they who drag you into court? Is it not they who blaspheme the honorable name which was invoked over you?

[James @James11145673]

2:5 Listen, my beloved brethren. Has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to those who love him?

[James @James11145673]

2:4 have you not made distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

[James @James11145673]

2:3 and you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, “Have a seat here, please,” while you say to the poor man, “Stand there,” or, “Sit at my feet...”

[James @James11145673]

2:2 For if a man with gold rings and in fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in...

1:27 Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.

[James @James11145673]

1:26 If any one thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this man’s religion is vain. #VOTE

1:25 But he who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer that forgets but a doer that acts, he shall be blessed in his doing.

[James @James11145673]

1:22-24 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if any one is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who observes his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like.

[James @James11145673]

1:21 Therefore put away all filthiness and rank growth of wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

[James @James11145673]

1:19-20 Know this, my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger, for the anger of man does not work the righteousness of God.

[James @James11145673]

1:17-18 Every good endowment and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.

[James @James11145673]

1:15-16 Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin; and sin when it is full-grown brings forth death. Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.

[James @James11145673]

1:13-14 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted with evil and he himself tempts no one; but each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.

[James @James11145673]

1:12 Blessed is the man who endures trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him. #BlackLivesMatter #vote

1:11 For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits. #BlackLivesMatter #vote

[James @James11145673]

1:9-10 Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation, and the rich in his humiliation, because like the flower of the grass he will pass away. #BlackLivesMatter #Vote
