In this powerful message, we're challenged to confront our tendency to judge others based on appearances. The story of James 2:1-13 serves as a stark reminder that showing favoritism contradicts our faith in Jesus Christ. We're asked to consider: How often do we discriminate without realizing it? The speaker's personal anecdotes about misjudging bikers and a young woman with pink hair illustrate how easily we can fall into this trap. The core lesson is clear: God calls us to love our neighbors as ourselves, regardless of their outward appearance or social status. This 'royal law' of love should guide our interactions with everyone we meet. As we reflect on this message, let's challenge ourselves to look beyond surface-level judgments and see others as God sees them – with love, compassion, and equality. This sermon was first preached at Springfield Church of God by Glen Hossler on October 13, 2024.
