James 2:1-13 | Undivided: Grace for Change from the Book of James | Trent Hunter

It is a contradiction with Jesus' kingdom and God's very nature for God's people to show partiality. What is partiality? Partiality is making value judgments about one another based on appearances, based on worldly advantage. This sin plagued the churches to whom James wrote. We do well to study his rebuke and his reasoning in James 2:1–13 to protect our own church from this soul-dividing sin.
