As believers in Jesus Christ we must not show favoritism.
3 Reasons We Must Not Show Favoritism
1. Favoritism is evil
2. Favoritism contradicts God's choice
“James’ point is a simple one: favoritism is profoundly un-Christian. It says, in effect, that someone who is worth more to the world is worth more to the church, and, correspondingly, that someone who is worth less to the world is worth less to the church. Favoritism ends up judging one person’s soul as being of greater value than another’s, and it does all this on the basis of superficial, worldly criteria. James will have none of it.” (Sam Allberry)
3. Favoritism breaks the whole law
What do we do?
1. Recognize your own standing before a Holy God
2. Ask for help
3. Do the hard work
