Was not Abraham our father made righteous from works, having offered up Isaac his son upon the altar?

Ye see therefore that from works a man is made righteous, and not from faith only.

And likewise also was not Rahab the harlot made righteous from works, having received the agents, and having sent them out another way?

And the tongue is a fire, the world of unrighteousness. Thus, the tongue is made to lead among our body-parts, defiling the whole body, and setting the cycle of nature on fire, and being set on fire by hell.

By it we bless the God and Father, and by it we curse men, who were made according to a likeness of God.

Be ye made lower in the sight of the Lord, and he will lift you up.
