Playing Favorites (James 2:1-4) Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Aug 19, 2021

Are you more likely to be friendly toward someone at church who is attractive than someone who is repulsive in some way? Do you look with more favor on wealthy people than homeless people? This passage teaches us how to look at people the way God looks at them.

Command: No Favoritism One of the most unsettling things that can happen when I read the Bible is when I discover that something is especially important to God, and it is not really a big deal in my thinking. For whatever reason, there are certain sins that we are all very aware of, and there are ...read more

Where Is Our Trust?

Contributed by Jon Mackinney on Aug 23, 2006

In our country, we are encouraged by some to put our trust in politicians who we expect to bring about great change and increased godliness. But this passage gives us fair warning about doing just that.

Do I Really Want To Become More Like Jesus?

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Sep 1, 2010

This is a tough question! Do I want to become more like Jesus, or do I want God to help me become more the person that I selfishly want to be?

Was Jesus a nice, polite, mild-mannered, good-natured young man who kept himself to himself? Was Jesus middle-of-the-road, all things to all people, politically correct, and softly spoken? Was Jesus the most inoffensive man you could ever wish to meet? I wonder what kind of gentle, meek and mild ...read more
