James 2:8-13

The holy writings say, `Love your neighbour as you love yourself.' If you obey this law of your King you do well.

But if you think one man is better than another, that is wrong. The law says you are a bad person.

10 Anyone who obeys the law, but then breaks one of the laws, has broken all the laws.

11 God made the law, `Do not use sex wrongly.' God also made the law, `Do not kill'. If you do not have wrong sex, but you kill, you have broken the law.

12 There is a law that makes people free. It is the law of showing kindness. Always talk and live like men who will be judged by that law.

13 When God judges, he will not be kind to a person who has not been kind. It is better to be kind than it is to judge people.
