James 1:19-22

Goodspeed(i) 19 You must understand this, my dear brothers. Everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to be angry, 20 for men's anger does not produce the uprightness God wishes. 21 So strip yourselves of everything that soils you, and of every evil growth, and in a humble spirit let the message that has the power to save your souls be planted in your hearts. 22 Obey the message; do not merely listen to it, and deceive yourselves.
