Change!

fulfilling, effective and dynamic New
Year!James 1:21-25
James 1:21-25
21 So put out of your life every evil thing and every kind of
wrong. Then in gentleness accept
God’s teaching that is planted in your hearts,
which can…
…save you. 22 Do what God’s teaching says; when you only
listen and do nothing, you are fooling
yourselves. 23 Those who hear God’s teaching and do
nothing are like people who look at
themselves…
…in a mirror. 24 They see their faces and then go away and
quickly forget what they looked like. 25 But the truly happy
people are those who carefully study God’s
perfect law that makes people free...
…and they continue to study it. They do not
forget what they heard, but they obey what God’s teaching says. Those who do
this will be made happy.”
