James 1:22-25

22 But be ^adoers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. 24 For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. 25 But the one who looks into the perfect law, ^bthe law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, ^che will be blessed in his doing.
