Lesson: Disregarding the Advice of Our Elders
Reading: Only hearing is not enough
Reference: James 1:22-25

James 1:22: But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
James 1:23: For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
James 1:24: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
James 1:25: But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
(KJV)
