A summary: It is all about putting into practice what you have heard and learned from God's Word, including caring for those in need and striving for purity.
This passage fits the context of James 1 in this way: Even as these believers were being persecuted themselves, they were to endure trials by obeying God's Word, not conforming to the pressures of the world's system; and to make sure that they continued to care for others in need as well. To obey God was to endure anything and be proactive in doing what was right.
