James2:12
12 So speak ye, and so do , as they that shall be judged by t[illegible: 1 letter]e law of liberty .
The Apostle concluding his Discourse about respecting Persons, which consisted both in their Words and Actions; he directs them how to govern themselves in both.
Viz. For both your Words and Actions, and that, not only in your own Consciences at present, but at God's Tribunal hereafter.
The Gospel; of the liberty of which it is one branch, that these differences among Men, of Jew and Gentile, Bond and Free, Circumcised and Uncircumcised, &c. are taken away, Acts 10.28. Gal. 3.28. Col. 3.11. against this Law of Liberty you sin if you respect persons, and then may well fear to be judged by it; as it takes away differences of persons now, so it will make none at last, but will be as impartial in its Judgment as it is in its Commands.
