God who Wants Us to Be Doers of His Word, not Hearers Only ㅡ

"But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves." (James 1:22 NKJV).

When we do practice the truth we are then following Jesus, who is the light of the world; and if we as a people are not constantly elevating, becoming more and more spiritual minded, we are becoming like the Pharisees - self-righteous - while we do not the will of God.
We must have a greater nearness to God. Much less of self and much more of Jesus Christ and His grace must be brought into our everyday life. We are living in an important period of this world’s history. The end of all things is at hand; the sands of time are fast running out; soon in heaven it will be said: “It is done” (Revelation 21:6). “He that is holy, let him be holy still,” “he which is filthy, let him be filthy still” (Revelation 22:11).
