                 forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be
                 blessed in what he does. (James, 1:25)


                 ... All who sin under the law [God's commandments] will be
                                    
                 judged by the law.  For it is not those who hear the law who
                 are righteous in God's Sight, but it is those who obey the law
                 who will be declared righteous. (Romans, 2:12-13)

                                                                   
                 As it is, you boast and brag. All such boasting is evil.  Anyone,
                 then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it,
                 sins. (James, 4:16-17)





                           Respecting Devout Parents

                 [Jesus:] "You know the commandments [of God]: 'Do not mur-
                 der, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false tes-
                 timony, do not defraud, honor your father and mother.'"
                 (Mark, 10:19)

                 [Jesus:] "... Honor your father and mother..." (Luke, 18:20;
                 Matthew, 19:19)


                 Children, obey your parents in the Lord [for the approval of
                 God], for this is right.   "Honor your father and mother"—
                 which is the first commandment with a promise—"that it may
                 go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth."
                 Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them
                 up in the training and instruction of the Lord. (Ephesians, 6:1-
                 4)

                 For Moses said, 'Honor your father and your mother'... (Mark,
                 7:10)
