Acts 17:28For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.Romans 2:13(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.James 1:22But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.James 1:23For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:James 1:25But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.James 4:11Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
