But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing.
James 1:25, ESV
God’s Law is not a set of arbitrary rules but based on His character, so He came as one of us to perfectly obey.
Now He helps us by His Holy Spirit to love in Christ’s obedience when we believe in His death and resurrection.
But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like.
James 1:22-24, ESV
We all want a better world, but we must be part of making the world better. If we are truly followers of Christ, we will obey Hos commands to go into all the world. Otherwise, we are merely actors, not workers.
