what makes us aligned with God

bro. mark daiz

main passage

james 2:5-7

partiality in the church will never be right in the eyes of men and in the eyes of God

God magnifies the riches of His grace, not the riches of a person

look at everyone through the eyes of Christ

we are saved by grace.
not by our merit or work or status or privilege or anything else that is within us. we cannot earn salvation and do not deserve His salvation.
God saves us by grace through faith in Christ.
even the criteria for being saved makes us all equal

when we truly believe the doctrine of God’s grace, it forces us to relate to people on the basis of God’s plan and not on the basis of human merit or social status
