		ABRAM: I discovered that very few of the medicine people that I met considered their work as healers to be their primary role or function for their communities.
		ABRAM: As I said, the shamans and sorcerers whom I encountered in my travels always said that their ability to heal people was a by-product of a different kind of healing.

	Justification by Faith—Illustrated by Abram's Righteousness

		Faith in Abram's case was the alone and unsupported cause of his being accounted righteous, for note, although in other cases Abram's faith produced works, and although in every case where faith is genuine it produces good works, yet the particular instance of faith recorded in this chapter was unattended by any works.

		Abram had a predilection for engineering rooted, he says, in a boy's fascination with building things, with cars, with jet engines, and with science fiction stories especially the Tom Swift series.
		Having had a taste of being his own boss, Abram was reluctant to return to being one of many tradesmen on a job site, even a televised job site; he acquiesced, he says, only because 1979 was a down year in the construction industry.
		Today, Abram is more a host than a carpenter on This Old House, taking on special projects a "media room," what used to be called a "TV den," in one recent series, for example rather than serving as the main hammerer.
