James 2:2 in context

  1. 1My brethren, hold not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.
  2. 2For if there come into your synagogue a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, and there come in also a poor man in vile clothing;
  3. 3and ye have regard to him that weareth the fine clothing, and say, Sit thou here in a good place; and ye say to the poor man, Stand thou there, or sit under my footstool;
  4. 4do ye not make distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
