Best Answer

James 1:22 (and surrounding verses)

(New World Translation) (James 1:22-25)

22However, become doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves with false reasoning.

23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word, and not a doer, this one is like a man looking at his natural face in a mirror.

24 For he looks at himself, and off he goes and immediately forgets what sort of man he is.

25 But he who peers into the perfect law that belongs to freedom and who persists in [it], this [man], because he has become, not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, will be happy in his doing [it].

What is a modern day disciple?

i dont have a clue ??Answer:Anyone who reads, believes and acts upon the Word of God, the Bible, through Faith. This "sanctifies" the disciple of God from others [sets them apart from others for God's Holy use and purpose]:"...Thy Word [the Bible] is Truth... for their [Jesus' disciples] sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also might be sanctified through the Truth. Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on Me through their Word..." (John 17:17-20).A "modern day disciple" seeks to "obey the Word of God.""...be ye DOERS of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." (James 1:22)"Do not merely listen to the Word, and so deceive yourselves. DO WHAT IT SAYS." (same verse; NIV)Modern day disciples of God are no different from ancient ones. They are simply the "doers of the Word of God."
