Do it.

"Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says." James 1:19


Here is the entire paragraph that contains this week's verse. Count the number of times the word "do" or "does" is used.


Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it--he will be blessed in what he does.


Last week I wrote extensively about the need to study the Bible. But knowledge for knowledge' sake is arrogant. According to 1 Corinthians 8:1, "knowledge puffs up but love builds up."




What is the Bible telling you you need to start or stop doing? I'm not leaving this as a rhetorical question; please leave your answer along with the verse that's speaking to you right now.
