Did you know that at the end of your life you will be tested by God, and found either 'true' or 'false'? His consuming fire will reveal the true nature of your profession of faith and that of all of your works. Thankfully, God speaks to us through His Word to help prepare us for that final analysis, and thus it is the one voice that we can trust and depend on completely, the voice that has already proven itself tried and true throughout all ages. To help you on your journey towards eternity, twice a week Pastor Paul Cheng explains a few verses from the Bible, simply and powerfully.

The Sin Of Showing Partiality [Part 2] (James 2:5-13)

“Surely, when compared to other sins, partiality can’t be viewed as all that bad, right?” Wrong.

Having warned against the continued prevalence of partiality in the church, the Apostle James further explains why discrimination is much more than a “matter of preference” to be overlooked. Instead, he stresses how such favouritism is a transgression completely contradictory to the nature of the very faith believers profess. Here, the golden rule to love one’s neighbours as one loves themself exposes even the slightest of prejudices as sin against the backdrop of unconditional love.
