James 2:5-6

5 Listen, my beloved brothers, ^ahas not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be ^brich in faith and heirs of ^cthe kingdom, ^dwhich he has promised to those who love him? 6 But you ^ehave dishonored the poor man. Are not the rich the ones who oppress you, and the ones who ^fdrag you ^ginto court?

James 2:14-16

Faith Without Works Is Dead

14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith ^hbut does not have works? Can that faith save him? 15 ⁱIf a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, 16 ^jand one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good ^{▼▼Or benefit} is that?
