James 2:10-13

James 2:10-13 King James Version (KJV)
10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

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.

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

13 For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.


James 2:10-13 The Voice (VOICE)


10 For if a person could keep all of the laws and yet break just one; it would be like breaking them all.11 The same God who said, “Do not commit adultery, ”also says, “Do not murder.” If you break either of these commands, you’re a lawbreaker, no matter how you look at it. 12 So live your life in such a way that acknowledges that one day you will be judged. But the law that judges also gives freedom,13 although you can’t expect to be shown mercy if you refuse to show mercy. But hear this: mercy always wins against judgment! Thank God!

These are my thoughts, please share yours.


10 We are all guilty against God to break one law is the same to God as breaking them to break one in heart we have broken them all.


11 There is not distinction of sin to God to be sinful makes us a sinner we all need Christ because thru sin we are condemned but thru Jesus we are saved.


12 We are guilty by the law, the law shows we need Christ, we can not be saved by keeping God’s law because Jesus was the only one who came that kept the law and He fulfilled it so that we live by grace not by the law but by Jesus.


13 We are to show love to one another because Christ loved love to us. If we can not love each other then we have to wonder have we received the love of Christ.
