—James 2:1-7

As a sinner, I often feel unworthy of the gifts that God has given me. It is God’s mercy and grace that have given me a spot in the Kingdom of Heaven. Despite my past, my appearance, or my financial status, God still chose me. As the Church, we must keep this in mind as we relate to others. To treat someone as less because they are not dressed properly, or they are not wealthy, or come from the wrong side of town is not only insulting to the individual being judged, but it also reflects poorly on our Lord, as that is not His nature. As the body of Christ, the Church must be welcoming and loving to all who walk through our doors seeking our Savior.
