Reflections with Andy - James 2: 1-13 - Legalistic about Love

James, in chapter two, continues to get all up in our business. He continues to warn us about the dangers of showing partiality.  He says that God will show His spiritual riches to the poor, but we so often dishonor them by how we treat them. This is a constant refrain from James and all across the Bible. Then he calls us to obey the royal law - love your neighbor. We are legalistic about so many things. But what if we were legalistic about love? What if love was the non-negotiable for us? What would things look like?  What if we focused on keeping the royal law?
