“Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.” (James 1:22 NIV)

You are made righteous through the obedience of Jesus

“For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.” (Rom. 5:19 NIV)

Walk in obedience to Him

“Walk in obedience to all that the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess.”(Deut. 5:33 NIV)
