4. Rather let each one examine his own work. Then he will have pride in himself alone and not in comparison to anyone else.
5. For each one will carry his own load.

7. Do not be deceived—God is not mocked. For whatever a man sows, that he also shall reap.
8. For the one who sows in the flesh will reap corruption from the flesh. But the one who sows in the Ruach will reap from the Ruach eternal life.
9. So let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we don’t give up.
10. Therefore, whenever we have an opportunity, let us do good toward all—especially those who belong to the household of faith.
