Bible verses about "spite" | Worsley

Matthew 5:21-22

21 Ye have heard, that it was said to the ancients, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever committeth murder, shall be liable to the judgment: 22 but I say unto you, that whosoever is angry with his brother without cause shall be liable to the judgment; and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be obnoxious to the council; but whosoever shall say, "Thou fool," shall be in danger of hell-fire.

1 John 4:1

1 Beloved, believe not every Spirit, but try the spirits, whether they be of God: for many false prophets are gone out into the world.

James 2:14-17

14 What is the advantage, my brethren, if any one say that he has faith, and he hath not works, can faith alone save him? 15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food; 16 and one of you say to them, Go in peace, be ye warmed and be ye filled: but ye give them not the necessaries of life, what profit is it to them? 17 so faith, if it have not works, being alone, is dead.
