"It is by grace [we] have been saved, through faith - & this not from [ourselves], it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast."
Ephesians 2:8-9
"All men are like grass, & all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers & the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord
stands forever."
1 Peter 1:24-25
