A new commandment I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you also must love one another.

Be kind and tenderhearted to one another, forgiving each other just as in Christ God forgave you.

A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

Love does no wrong to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.

For you, brothers, were called to freedom; but do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh. Rather, serve one another in love.

Now faith is the assurance of what we hope for and the certainty of what we do not see.

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.

But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.

Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His loving devotion endures forever. Let Israel say, “His loving devotion endures forever.” Let the house of Aaron say, “His loving devotion endures forever.” Let those who fear the LORD say, “His loving devotion endures forever.” In my distress I called to the LORD, and He answered and set me free. . . .

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
