11Speak not against one another, brethren; he that speaketh against his brother, or judgeth his brother, speaketh against the law, and judgeth the law; but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
1 Peter 2:1, 1 Peter 2:1, Romans 2:1, Romans 2:1, James 5:9

1 Peter 1:24, 1 Peter 1:24, Psalms 39:5, Psalms 39:5, 1 John 2:17
15instead of saying, If the Lord will, we shall both live and do this or that;

16but now ye glory in your boastings. All such glorying is evil.
