Ten prayer warriors met this morning to study Chapter 2.
This chapter provides us with guidance regarding partiality and favoritism.
The PAX discussed the following takeaways from today’s readings.
—————————————————————————————————————————
James 2:1-4 ~ My brothers, show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory.
Takeaways:
– Partiality insults people who are made in God’s image and shows a lack of mercy to the less fortunate.
– By honoring someone because of their riches, we are making appearance more important than character.
– Be mindful of how you treat others and refrain from showing favoritism.
—————————————————————————————————————————
James 2:10 ~ For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become accountable for all of it.
Takeaways:
– Christians are saved by God’s grace but this verse is not an excuse to sin recklessly.
– Ask Him for for forgiveness and demonstrate your faith through good works.

Have a great weekend and prepare your minds/hearts to continue our study of James next Friday.
