James Knows

19

Evil people will bow before good people;
the wicked will bow at the gates of the godly.

20

The poor are despised even by their neighbors,
while the rich have many “friends.”

Verse 19

This is not our experience today. Solomon is describing what should happen. Really, a good man is important. He is even more important than a famous person, or a king. People should respect him.

Verse 20

This is terrible! People love a rich man, because they want to benefit from his money. People hate a poor man, because he has nothing to give to them. Christians must not behave like this. See James 2:1-7.

Verse 19 describes how creation should work rather

than how it actually works.

Verse 20 describes how creation actually works, not how

it should work.

Listen to this: Listen how James describes how the differences

between rich and poor should be handled in Chapter Two.

My brothers, don’t hold the faith of our Lord Jesus

Christ of glory with partiality. 2For if a man with a gold ring,

in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue, and a poor

man in filthy clothing also comes in; 3and you pay special

attention to him who wears the fine clothing, and say, “Sit

here in a good place”; and you tell the poor man, “Stand

there,” or “Sit by my footstool”; 4haven’t you shown

partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil

thoughts? 5Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn’t God choose

those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and

heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love

him? 6But you have dishonored the poor man. Don’t the

rich oppress you, and personally drag you before the

courts? 7Don’t they blaspheme the honorable name by

which you are called? 8However, if you fulfill the royal law,

according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor

as yourself,” you do well. 9But if you show partiality, you

commit sin.
