James 1:22-25: the hearer who does not act is like a man who sees his face in a glass and straightway forgets what manner of man he was; the doer looks into the perfect law of liberty, liberates himself and is blessed in his deed. A little knowledge carried out in action profits more than much knowledge neglected: hearing the law is nothing until it is applied.
