love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. He that loveth me not, keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear, is not mine, but the Father's which sent me, John xiv. 21-24. Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God, 1 Cor. vii. 19. But be ye doers of the word, and not hear ers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass; For he beholdeth himself and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed, Jam. i. 22-25.

d To them, who, by patient continuance in well doing, seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life, Rom. ii. 7.
