- I have been the Lord your God
ever since I brought you out of Egypt.
You must acknowledge no God but me,
for there is no other savior. - Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins.
- Around midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening.
- Dear brothers and sisters, we can’t help but thank God for you, because your faith is flourishing and your love for one another is growing.
- But if you refuse to serve the Lord, then choose today whom you will serve. Would you prefer the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates? Or will it be the gods of the Amorites in whose land you now live? But as for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.
- For I long to visit you so I can bring you some spiritual gift that will help you grow strong in the Lord. When we get together, I want to encourage you in your faith, but I also want to be encouraged by yours.
- Finally, all of you should be of one mind. Sympathize with each other. Love each other as brothers and sisters. Be tenderhearted, and keep a humble attitude.
- Whom have I in heaven but you?
I desire you more than anything on earth. - Do not deprive each other of sexual relations, unless you both agree to refrain from sexual intimacy for a limited time so you can give yourselves more completely to prayer. Afterward, you should come together again so that Satan won’t be able to tempt you because of your lack of self-control.
- Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.
- Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other.
- As soon as they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then when Paul laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in other tongues and prophesied.
- Owe nothing to anyone—except for your obligation to love one another. If you love your neighbor, you will fulfill the requirements of God’s law.
- May God, who gives this patience and encouragement, help you live in complete harmony with each other, as is fitting for followers of Christ Jesus.
- Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor
and gave him the name above all other names,
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth. - There are “friends” who destroy each other,
but a real friend sticks closer than a brother. - Therefore, accept each other just as Christ has accepted you so that God will be given glory.
- For the law was not intended for people who do what is right. It is for people who are lawless and rebellious, who are ungodly and sinful, who consider nothing sacred and defile what is holy, who kill their father or mother or commit other murders. The law is for people who are sexually immoral, or who practice homosexuality, or are slave traders, liars, promise breakers, or who do anything else that contradicts the wholesome teaching that comes from the glorious Good News entrusted to me by our blessed God.
- Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions.
- Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves.
- Accept other believers who are weak in faith, and don’t argue with them about what they think is right or wrong.
- Don’t lie to each other, for you have stripped off your old sinful nature and all its wicked deeds. Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him.
- No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.
- Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love.
- Because one person disobeyed God, many became sinners. But because one other person obeyed God, many will be made righteous.
