Show the answer and explanation

Answer: E (hearing the word and remaining unstained in the world.)

Explanation

James says we must be doers of the word and not hearers only (James 1:22). True religion shows itself in action and in keeping oneself unstained from the world (1:27); the man who looks in a mirror and forgets is his picture of faith without works.
