Doctrinal belief and neighborly practice are inseparable in biblical ethics.

Evidence

We must embrace the second aspect of the gospel, what we can label the practical gospel—practices that flow from the doxastic gospel, such as loving one’s neighbor, seeking justice for the oppressed, and caring for orphans and widows. Scott pointed out to me how throughout the Bible the doxastic gospel is inextricable from the practical gospel. — Andrew L. Whitehead, American Idolatry, 80
