James: 2 (2/2)

You must understand this, my beloved: let everyone be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger.
James 1:19 speaking listening anger
Therefore rid yourselves of all sordidness and rank growth of wickedness, and welcome with meekness the implanted word that has the power to save your souls.
James 1:21 salvation Word of God evil

But be doers of the word, and not merely hearers who deceive themselves.
James 1:22 obedience Word of God listening
But those who look into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and persevere, being not hearers who forget but doers who act—they will be blessed in their doing.
James 1:25 law blessing listening
If any think they are religious, and do not bridle their tongues but deceive their hearts, their religion is worthless.
James 1:26 speaking
Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to care for orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
James 1:27 sin blameless widows
