James 1:23-25

23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror; 24 for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was. 25 But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man will be blessed in what he does.

“The challenge is always this: Are men and women going to allow the Word of God to sit in judgment on their puny minds, or are they going to make their puny minds the judges of the Word of God?  We have taken the latter course as a culture. So there is mass confusion today–even in the evangelical church–over whether the Bible is true and over how far we should go in obeying it.” ~ Alistair Begg

Blessings for this first weekend of the new year!
