"It is by his deeds that a lad distinguishes himself If his conduct is pure
and right" (Proverbs 20:11 NASB). It it not our fashion sense or our ability
to brag that distinguishes ourselves, but what we do. Just as hearing the
word without obeying it is useless (cf. Matthew 7:24-27, James 1:22-25), so
is professing what you are going to do without actually doing it. It isn't
just action that we need to be paying attention to, however, but what
actions we are doing. Doing what is pure and right is what will distinguish
us from the rest of the world. Anything else will show us to be following
the crowd.
