The Lord does what is right and fair for all who are treated badly.

A person with a bad temper stirs up conflict. But a person who is patient calms things down.

Do not have anything to do with arguing. It is dumb and foolish. You know it only leads to fights.

Flee also youthful lists; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

God was pleased to bring all things back to himself. That’s because of what Christ has done. These things include everything on earth and in Heaven. God made peace through Christ’s blood, by His death on the cross.

So let us do all we can to live in peace. And let us work hard to build up one another.
