Being Doers, Not Only Hearers - James 1:19-27

One of the core themes of the Book of James is explained: the danger of being someone who only hears God’s word and does not also do it.

I am happy to have found this teaching as it's exactly what I am studying today, incredible!

[margaretlarriva]

This is something that we as Christian will battle with until we go from this earth being doers of the word and not just 🙉!! This is my pray for strength to obey each day and it's a battle because each day we learn about some area that we have fallen short of His Glory!! But not I that lives but CHRIST that lives in me!!!
By the grace of God we go on and by the communion of the blessed Holy Spirit!
Pray for all of God's Children as we journey here on this earth 🌎 for His Strength to overcome!!

I am.glad you highlighted the verse that says 'be doers of the WORK". I think I read it 'Word" for many years as well. I read James a couple years ago and REALLY appreciated it in a new way. I'm also glad you addressed the issues of our speech as believers. It has really.gotten out of hand among us. Not bridling 'their thimbs" 😄. Funny, but sadly true.

God help me not only to be a hearer of the word but also a doer! I bind every spirit that speaks but that does not do in my life and those surrounding me to the pit of hell while I will not be yoked with an unbeliever serving satan, als I bind all the filth of wickedness in my life and those surrounding me to the pit of hell, in agreement with this whole message and loosening James 1, psalm 91, 2 corinthians 6:14-15, matthew 6:24, 1 john 3:10 to see an inside as outward reflection of Christ as well in the name and by the blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah!!

I approached the leader of our congregation if there are any"poor" in our church that I could help and he didn't know any such people in our church. Maybe our church is quite blessed that there are no such people but now need to look elsewhere. Very good Word of God and very well presented.

I can totally feel you love teaching the Bible ! Gods word! and I love learning through you🙏🏻❤️thank you kindly David Guzik

[carolynbohannon]

Wow. I never knew it meant that. Thank you dear holy spirit for opening my heart to this message😊

[workisfun...]

Great message! A group of us from church do a jail ministry at our local county jail on Sunday afternoons. That is an awesome opportunity to Do as James said. Anyone "looking for" something to do, look into something like that for your local jail. I honestly get as much (if not more) out of it than the inmates that participate do. God bless y'all! Galatians 6:2

[ToOpenseven]

Great message. I love the part where you said when we don't DO the word of God through doing and obedience is like when you look in the mirror and you can see that big black mark on your face, but you don't do anything about it and then you walk away and that mark is still on your face, you have the knowledge, but it was not applied and there was no change. Wow, if that isn't a sad example of my Christian walk!!

[jewishbride]

In agreement with this whole message I bind to be doers and not only hearers of the word in accordance with james 1:19-27, 2 corinthians 6:14-15, matthew 6:24, 1 john 3:10 for myself, my family, friends, colleagues, neighbours, acquitances, those around me, my opponents and the body of Christ while binding to hell all filthiness and overflow of wickedness and binding to hell to only hear but not act out the word of God, binding myself not being unequally yoked and have any common share with any evildoer serving satan that is only a hearer but not a doer of God his word, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah!

[agoeshartawan]

Got it, this exposition is very practical in Christian life now days. Book of James is very easy to comprehend. At the verse 19 - 27. He gave us wisdom above that we can literally conduct in daily life.

[MSrabakanow]

It's true, it goes beyond naughty words, people can be lying and use the queen's English but spreading falsehoods. I love theses verse, as it really emphasises Integrity and to care for those who need support. Beautiful message ❤️
