Verse
James - ch 1 v 21 - 27
- Wherefore putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
- But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deluding your own selves.
- For if any one is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a mirror:
- for he beholdeth himself, and goeth away, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
- But he that looketh into the perfect law, the `law' of liberty, and `so' continueth, being not a hearer that forgetteth but a doer that worketh, this man shall be blessed in his doing.
- If any man thinketh himself to be religious, while he bridleth not his tongue but deceiveth his heart, this man's religion is vain.
- Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, `and' to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
