James 1:21

Doers Of The Message, Not Just Hearers

²⁰ The anger of man does not promote the righteousness of God. ²¹ Therefore, putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the word implanted, which is able to save your souls. ²² Be doers of the word, and not hearers only, who deceive themselves.
