Romans 15
James taught -
"Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world." (New Testament | James 1:27)
And in modern day the Savior taught -
"...ye must visit the poor and the needy and administer to their relief...." (Doctrine and Covenants | Section 44:6)
Such that we -
"...succor the weak, lift up the hands which hang down, and strengthen the feeble knees." (Doctrine and Covenants | Section 81:5)
As Paul closes out his epistle to the Romans, he preaches much the same thing -
"WE then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
2 Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification." (New Testament | Romans 15:1 - 2)
In a manner -
"...that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope." (New Testament | Romans 15:4)
This is pure religion
