James 2:10
King James Bible
For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
Do you keep the whole law, Delph?
Do you keep the whole law, Delph?
To the Best of my ability, Jesus will be my judge, not you.
OK, this is funny,
James 2:11 the very next scripture, uses Murder as a law to break which makes you an adulterer as well.
11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
Kill anyone lately? If not, you are keeping one law, and by your logic must keep them all...
I knew this would be good for a laugh!
Then there's
James 10:14-26, same chapter, just a bit further down. It kind of puts another few nails in the coffin of "we've already been saved by grace and don't need to do anything" theology.
