Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
- James 1:22
(NIV)
If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.
Romans 14:8 (NIV)
Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
Sovereign Lord, you are God! Your covenant is trustworthy, and you have promised these good things to your servant.
Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household
You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.
I love the Lord, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy. Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.
My soul yearns for you in the night; in the morning my spirit longs for you. When your judgments come upon the earth, the people of the world learn righteousness.
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above ourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.
