“Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?”
James 2:4 (KJV)
Commentary on James 2:4
Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts? By acting this way, believers become judges (kritai, κριταί) with evil thoughts (dialogismōn ponērōn, διαλογισμῶν πονηρῶν). The verb "are ye not divided" (diakrithēte, διεκρίθητε) indicates wavering between God's standards and the world's. Partiality is a theological judgment, not mere etiquette.James insists that sinful discrimination flows from corrupted reasoning. Reformed thought underscores that the renewed mind must align with God's impartial character; favoritism reveals double-mindedness.
