Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?

But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

Question 11

Answer 12

So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.

Question 26

Jas 2:26

Answer 26

For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
