Neighbor (2/3)

  • This is what the Lord Almighty said: ‘Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the foreigner or the poor. Do not plot evil against each other.’
  • If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?
  • Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
  • If either of them falls down,
    one can help the other up.
    But pity anyone who falls
    and has no one to help them up.
  • And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’
  • For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love.
  • This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.
  • If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.
  • Do not forsake your friend or a friend of your family,
    and do not go to your relative’s house when disaster strikes you—
    better a neighbor nearby than a relative far away.
  • Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.
  • Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
  • Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.”
  • No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
  • Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen:
    to loose the chains of injustice
    and untie the cords of the yoke,
    to set the oppressed free
    and break every yoke?
  • Arise, Lord! Lift up your hand, O God.
    Do not forget the helpless.
  • Defend the weak and the fatherless;
    uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.
  • Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet.
  • See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.
  • John answered, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.”
  • Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave.
  • There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you—who are you to judge your neighbor?
  • Give proper recognition to those widows who are really in need.
  • You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.
  • And I saw that all toil and all achievement spring from one person’s envy of another. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.
  • So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him.

To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.
