James 1:25

Doers Of The Message, Not Just Hearers

²⁴ For he considered himself and went his way and in one hour forgot what he was like. ²⁵ But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man will be blessed in what he does. ²⁶ If anyone among you thinks to be religious and does not bridle his tongue, but deceives his own heart, his religion is vain.
