FAITH & FAVORITISM

FAITH & FAVORITISM
Pastor Chris Otero | 6.30.24

As your faith so does our ability to .

1.  Faith does not pick .

Faith teaches me to look to God rather than on people.

James 2:1-4 “My brothers and sisters, believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ must not show favoritism. If you show special attention to the man wearing fine clothes and say, “Here’s a good seat for you,” but say to the poor man, “You stand there” or “Sit on the floor by my feet,” have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?

2. Faith trains me to look and .

James 2:8-9 If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing right. But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers. For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.

3. Faith leads me to run on and not judgment.

James 2:11-13 For he who said, “You shall not commit adultery,” also said, “You shall not murder.” If you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a lawbreaker. Speak and act as those who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom, because judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment.”

Galatians 3:26 For in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith.
