"By their fruit..."
(Belief translates to Actions)
"A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear
good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown
into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone
who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he
who does the will of my Father who is in heaven." - Mathew 7:18-21
"If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not
keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless.
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look
after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being
polluted by the world." - James 1:26-27
"I have always thought the actions of men the
best interpreters of their thoughts." - John Locke
"Let us not love with words or tongue
but with actions and in truth." - 1 John 3:18
"But if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother
in need, yet closes his heart against him how does God’s love abide in him?" -
1 John 3:17
"Anyone, then, who knows the good he
ought to do and does not do it, sins." - James 5:10
