Good day steemians, happy sunday to you all. Today i will be writing on a very disturbing and critical topic ; Partiality. Before going into this topic i will quickly define partiality.
Partiality simply means being unfair, bias or in favour of one person or something.
If you ask me i will say partiality is common in our society today and most of the times the poor are the ones always affected. Most people in the society or in an organisation would prefer to please a rich man than a poor man despite the fact we all have the same rights to all things, but because of what they will eat or the little change they will collect they will rather be unfair to a poor man and be fair to someone who is rich.
Deep thoughts
Sometimes i ask myself, where are we going to in this country ? and even the whole world at large because it happens everywhere favoritism For example a rich man wants to position his son in a company and also a poor man wants to do the same ,If you check based on qualification most times you will see that a poor man's child performs excellent compared to a rich man's son. And so the both parents walks into the organisation you should trust we humans we must have accessed their worth already and this simple act will determine how they will both be welcomed and treated. Starting from even the lower employees like the gate man when he sees a fine car he begins to jump and directs when it is not even needed , but then when a poor man drives in they won't even leave that position not to talk of directing the car. And so after meeting with the person in charge of accepting new workers you should be sure that the rich man's son will get the job and then the poor man goes with nothing. That is why they say:
The rich will keep on getting rich and the poor the same.
You claim you are a rich man and then you cannot think of what to do with your money so that you will be able to create job opportunities to the youths out there without jobs, instead you still struggle with the little a poor man is able to access.

James teaching on partiality
James was particularly addressing the issue of showing partiality to the rich and shunning the poor,He said “But if you are partial, you have sinned" Because God commanded us to love one another and then when we are not impartial we tend to care less for someone we have disobeyed the commandment .It is so sad that today in our churches partiality has taken over , some people are being treated differently from others because of this same discrimination between the rich and the poor. When the church is still practicing this unholy act what then will the people in the society do? So James’ teaching here is relevant for our times.

In conclusion
We should all learn to treat everyone the same way, you never know what or who that person will be tomorrow, because nobody knows tomorrow. Forget about the little things you get for being partial ,all **those things don't last.Be impartial.

We have to imitate our heavenly father when it comes to partiality, he doesn't just tell us to be impartial but he leads with a fine example. If we do not try to be different from people out there we will end up following the crowd. Thanks for the well thought out writeup.

I think you are right by raising this topic today. Now I'd like to think that before we actually talk about the high and mighty being unfair in the society, we should do a bit of self evaluation on ourselves. How do we treat those we meet everyday on the streets? Do we respect the elderly? Are we fair in our dealings?? I believe the little drops of water make the mighty ocean. I believe in all things it all boils down to what God says in his word. If we have the holyspirit and live according the will of God, we can make a change in the world, we can be fair in our dealings and treat everyone fairly. Cheers!!

Weĺl, it's just saddening to know that some people that call themselves Christians are partial. We as Christians should behave like iur father who is an impartial judge. God is not partial and that is how we ought to be.
It's good to have you at the steem church today. Do have a great day.

I always tell people: treat everyone with respect. The truth is, if we have respect for one another, the issue of partiality will gradually die down! The bible teaches us that we are all equal in the sight of God!

Scripture says be ye perfect has your Heavenly Father is perfect, come to think of it, that's the meaning of my name lol :)
Remember the words of the scripture that what ever causes us to sin, we should cut it off. It's no doubt that the urge to be partial will not come, but when it comes we should resist it and it shall flee from us

We should learn to address everyone and issues without being biased.
The future isn't certain, the reward for being impartial especially in the business world doesn't last but living an impartial life glorifies the Creator.

thinking of partiality, i see it as a crime against morality and humanity. not to be too stern, being partial implies that you are hurting ones feeling to favour another... it can be deduce that when partiality is being shown in a community a set of person or a single individual is being deprive of sometime he/she deserves as such love is not shown. meanwhile as it was shown in the scripture that "one should show love to one another as one will do to oneself".
partiality is indeed a crime to morality

There are tendencies towards closure, partiality and sheer irrationality in society, and these admittedly affect higher education.

Let us stand for equality and not equity. Partiality has eaten deep into the world and stopping it is inevitable but we can try. I think I'll preach on partiality. Thanks brother

From my view partiality it God structured is never about love or hate but preference over another i believe thats why God chose isreal over orher nations or david over his siblings orake some rich so they help the poor ,although it is stated that God loves all his creatures yet ye prefer some oner another.

Well said 🤔it’s really sad that partiality is the trending thing in our society.
Success is not by the money in your account but by your impact to humanity
If only the rich can work with this 👆🏽Then the society will be better instead of denying the poor of their right because they don’t have who to speak for them 💔.
