There is a difference in hearing the word of God, listening to read and doing it. Majority of persons just here the word of God, but you don't listen to it. People in our generation can hear the words of God but not listen to them. Directly or indirectly you can come across, people talking about the word of God, you hear them, but decide to pay a deaf ears to the word of God and by so doing that, you don't listen, you just hear...
The book of Psalms 115:4, it was stated that, "Their idols are Silver and Gold, the work of men's hands"when we come down to number 5 of This Passage, it is made clear that "these Idols have mouth, but can't speak and they have ears, but can't hear, they have noses but can perceive smell, they have eyes but can't see, they have hand but they cannot use them to hold or touch something, they have foot but they cannot walk through the foot." This passage made it clear that those that worship them are just like them.
Here it is used to compare those that just hear the word of God without listening to it, because, just as the passage said. They have ears but they don't hear with it. A lot of persons worship idols, this idios are made by individuals, Man Made god's.
Just in the book of Acts of the apostle, 17:29 it was stated that, for as much as we are the offspring of God, we an hot not to think that God is the same with, idols or silver or gold that are made by man-made. Therefore, do not be those who just hear the word of God but don't listen to it, rather Be Those, who hear the word of God, listen to the word of God and Do that which is the writing the word of God..
