“Judge a man not by his words, but by his deeds.”

It sounds cool whichever way you frame it or arrange the words, and certainly, it rings true. It also parellels nicely with the teachings of the Holy Bible, such as the verses below.

“Even children are known by the way they act, whether their conduct is pure, and whether it is right.” – Proverbs 20:11
“God will give to each person according to what he has done.” – Romans 2:6
“You can identify them by their fruit, that is, by the way they act.” – Mathew 7:6
“As the old saying goes, ‘From evildoers come evil deeds,’ so My hand will not touch you.” – 1 Samuel 24:13
“The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control; against such things there is no law.” – Galatians 5:22
“But someone will say, ‘You have faith; I have deeds.’ Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.” – James 2:18
