Main point summary

Followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, should show no partiality (2:1) because such discrimination is evil (2:2-4), and because God Himself regards the poor (2:5-6), and because it makes no sense (2:6-7), and because it violates the law of love (2:8-11), and because we are the ones who will be judged (2:12-13).
