James 2:8-11

James 2:8-11

 ⁸If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, "Love your neighbor as yourself,"^[a] you are doing right. ⁹But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers. ¹⁰For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it. ¹¹For he who said, "Do not commit adultery,"^[b] also said, "Do not murder."^[c] If you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a lawbreaker.

My Thoughts:

- Doing right = loving your neighbor as yourself.
- Favoritism = Breaking the law.
- If you break 1 part of the law you have broken the law...  Basically everyone is a sinner - if you break a small part of the law you are still a sinner.

What do you think?

1. How can you love your neighbor as yourself?
2. Why would it say to love your neighbor as much as yourself?  How is that a good example?
3. Showing favoritism isn't as bad as say murder...  but it is still a sin. Do you think this is true?  Why?

Let me hear your thoughts!
