The Kingdom of Godas opposed to

The Empire of Man

James 1:22-25

But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it

says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. For if

you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at

your face in a mirror. You see yourself, walk away, and

forget what you look like. But if you look carefully into the

perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says

and don’t forget what you heard, then God will bless you

for doing it.
