So that your faith might be based not on man's wisdom but on the power of God.

Every man's work will be made clear in that day, because it will be tested by fire; and the fire itself will make clear the quality of every man's work.

You yourselves are our letter, whose writing is in our heart, open for every man's reading and knowledge;

If a man seems to have religion and has no control over his tongue but lets himself be tricked by what is false, this man's religion is of no value.

My brothers, if you have the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory, do not take a man's position into account.

But if you take a man's position into account, you do evil, and are judged as evil-doers by the law.

You see that a man's righteousness is judged by his works and not by his faith only.

And if you give the name of Father to him who, judging every man by his acts, has no respect for a man's position, then go in fear while you are on this earth:

But his wrongdoing was pointed out to him: an ass, talking with a man's voice, put a stop to the error of the prophet.

See, I am waiting at the door and giving the sign; if my voice comes to any man's ears and he makes the door open, I will come in to him, and will take food with him and he with me.
