But be sure you live out the message and do not merely listen to it and so deceive yourselves.

For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous before God, but those who do the law will be declared righteous.

For in him we live and move about and exist, as even some of your own poets have said, ‘For we too are his offspring.’

For if someone merely listens to the message and does not live it out, he is like someone who gazes at his own face in a mirror.

But the one who peers into the perfect law of liberty and fixes his attention there, and does not become a forgetful listener but one who lives it out – he will be blessed in what he does.

Do not speak against one another, brothers and sisters. He who speaks against a fellow believer or judges a fellow believer speaks against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but its judge.
