Romans 2:13
Douay-Rheims
For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
John Chrysostom
What benefit is it if, while listening each day, we neglect to practice what we hear? Hence I beseech you, let us be zealous in practicing those very deeds (by no other way, in fact, is it possible to be saved) so that we may also wash away our sins and be granted the Lord's lovingkindness at his own hands, thanks to the grace and mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ.
