Antinomianism against the use of the law

James 2:10	For whoever keeps the entire law (nomon \| νόμον \| acc sg masc) yet fails at a single point has become guilty of the law as a whole.
James 2:11	For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not commit murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a transgressor of the law (nomou \| νόμου \| gen sg masc).
James 2:12	So speak and so act as those who are to be judged by the law (nomou \| νόμου \| gen sg masc) that brings freedom.
James 4:11	Do not speak against one another, my brothers. Whoever speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks against the law (nomou \| νόμου \| gen sg masc) and judges the law (nomon \| νόμον \| acc sg masc); but if you judge the law (nomon \| νόμον \| acc sg masc), you are not a doer of the law (nomou \| νόμου \| gen sg masc) but a judge of it.
