  • Jas 2:1-7 : 1 My brothers, do not hold the faith of our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of favoritism. 2 Suppose a man with gold rings and dressed in fine clothes enters your assembly, and a poor man in filthy clothes also comes in. 3 If you show special attention to the one wearing fine clothing and say, 'Here is a good seat for you,' but tell the poor man, 'You stand there,' or 'Sit here by my footstool,' 4 have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts? 5 Listen, my beloved brothers: Has not God chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him? 6 But you have dishonored the poor man. Are not the rich the ones who oppress you and drag you into court? 7 Are they not the ones who blaspheme the noble name that was invoked over you?

In the same way, the rich person will fade away in the midst of his pursuits.
