“Everyone who hears these words ofmine and puts them into practice is likethat wise man who built his house on
the rock.” Matthew 7:24
“Faith comes from hearing the message,and the message is heard through the
Word of Christ.” Romans 10:17
“Everyone should be QUICK TO LISTEN,slow to speak and slow to become angry,for man’s anger does not bring about the
righteous life that God desires.Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the
evilthat is so prevalent and humbly ACCEPT
THEWORD planted in you, which can save you.”
James 1:19-21
“Do not merely listen to the Word, and sodeceive yourselves. Do what is 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, notforgetting what he has heard, but doingit—he will be blessed in what he does.”
James 1:22-25
You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them
you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures
that testify about me John 5:39
,
Now the Berean Jews were of more noble character than those in
Thessalonica, for they received the message
with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if
what Paul said was true. Acts 17:11
“The man who looks intently into theperfect law…and continues to do this,not forgetting what he has heard but
doing it, he will be blessed in whathe does.”
James 1:25
“Do not let this Book of the Law departfrom your mouth; meditate on it day
and night, so that you may be careful todo everything written in it. Then youwill be prosperous and successful.”
Joshua 1:8
