Mercy triumphs over judgment

James 2:8-13
Love your neighbor as yourself. If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, you are doing right.
For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.
Because judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment!
Why?
It is a natural human tendency to defer to social superiors and despise those below us on the social scale. There is nothing Christian about this. The right thing is to treat everyone with equal respect - to love out neighbor as ourselves, as God's commandment teaches us.
Law that give of freedom: Christ's law is a law of mercy, freeing people from the penalty of sin - something the law of Moses could not do. Paul also speaks of the law of Christ in 1 Corinthians 9 and Galatians.
How?
Follow every word and commandment, the royal law is love your neighbor as yourself. Remember mercy triumphs over judgment.  Get rid of favoritism and judgment. Judgment belong to the God.
