Comparing My Choices with His
James 2:5-9
James continues addressing the issue of partiality that is common with us all. In verse five, he tells us that God's way of choosing is opposite of mans ways in that He has chosen the poor of the earth to be rich in faith. With that in mind, Pastor Jack reminds us that we were chosen not for our good looks, our noble intentions, or lovability, but only because God's grace as He looks upon the heart. This is clearly seen looking at the humble means God used to bring Jesus into this world. Even when Jesus was ministering upon the earth, he reached out to the rejected and the disadvantaged. Therefore, as believers, we must see through God's eyes and be ready to accept those for whom Jesus had come.
