James 1:22-26

Mace(i) 22 Don't delusively content your selves with being of the audience, but put what you hear in practice: 23 for a bare auditor without practice is like one who sees his image form'd by a mirror: 24 he takes a view, turns away, and instantly loses his appearance. 25 whereas, he that attentively considers the perfect law of liberty, and is attach'd thereto, he is not a forgetful hearer, but reduces it to practice, and his conduct is crown'd with hapiness. 26 If a person of an ungovernable tongue pretends to religion, he abuses himself: for his religion is meer illusion.
