1 Corinthians 13:4-5
Colossians 3:12
12 Therefore, as elect of God, holy and beloved, put on affections of mercy, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering;
James 1:1-27
1 James, the servant of God and the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes who are in the Dispersion, greeting.
2 Count it all joy, my brethren, when you may fall into manifold temptations.
3 Knowing that the trial of your faith works out endurance.
4 But let endurance have its perfect work, in order that you may be perfect and whole in every part, lacking in nothing.
5 But if any of you lack wisdom, let him ask God, who gives to all cheerfully and upbraids none; and it will be given unto him.
6 But let him ask in faith, doubting as to nothing; for he that doubts is like unto a wave of the sea driven by the winds and tossed by the tempest.
7 For let not that man think that he will receive anything from the Lord,
8 the double-minded man, the most unstable in all his ways.
9 But let the humble brother boast in his exaltation:
10 and the rich man, in his humility: because as the flower of the grass he will pass away.
11 For the sun with a scorching wind has risen, and dried up the grass, and its flower fell off, and the beauty of its countenance perished: so indeed the rich man will pass away in his ways.
12 Happy is the man who endures temptation: because, being proved, he will receive a crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him with divine love.
13 Let no one being tempted say, I am tempted from God. For God can not be tempted with evils, and he tempts no one:
14 but each one is tempted by his own lusts, being drawn out, and enticed.
15 Then the lust, conceiving, brings forth sin; and sin, having been perfected, produces death.
16 Be not deceived, my beloved brethren.
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of change.
18 Of his own will begat he us by the word of truth, that we should be some first fruit of his creations.
19 Know, my beloved brethren; but let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow toward wrath:
20 for the wrath of man works not the righteousness of God.
21 Therefore having laid aside all filthiness and excess of evil, receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
23 For if any one is a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like a man beholding his natural face in a mirror:
24 for he recognized himself, and has gone away, and immediately forgot what kind he was.
25 But the one having looked into the perfect law which is the law of liberty, and having remained in it, not being a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, he shall be happy in his work.
26 But if any one seems to be religious, bridling not his own tongue, but deceiving his own heart, the religion of that man is vain.
27 Pure religion and undefiled with God even the Father is this, to relieve the orphans and widows in their affliction, and keep himself unspotted from the world.
Matthew 5:43-48
43 You have heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor and hate thine enemy.
44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies with a divine love, bless those who curse you and pray for those who despitefully use you and persecute you:
45 in order that you may be the sons of your Father who is in the heavens: because He raises up His sun on the wicked and on the good, and rains on the righteous and on the unrighteous.
46 For if you love those that love you, what reward have ye? because the publicans also do the same.
47 If you salute your brethren only, what do ye more abundantly? do not the heathens also the same thing?
48 Therefore ye shall be perfect, as your Father who is in heaven is perfect.
Ephesians 4:1-32
1 Therefore I, the prisoner in the Lord, exhort you to walk worthily of the calling with which you are called,
2 with all humility and meekness, with long suffering, forbearing one another in divine love;
3 endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
4 There is one body and one Spirit, as ye indeed are called in one hope of your calling;
5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and above you all, and in all.
7 And to each one of you grace is given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
8 Therefore he says, Having ascended upon high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts to the people.
9 But what is that which ascended, except that which descended into the lower parts of the earth?
10 But the one having descended and the one having ascended above all the heavens, that he might fill all things, is the same.
11 And he gave some, apostles; some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
12 unto the perfection of the saints, in the work of the ministry, in the edification of the body of Christ:
13 until we may all come into the unity of the faith, and of the perfect knowledge of the Son of God, into a perfect man, into the measure of the likeness of the fulness of Christ:
14 in order that we may be no longer infants, tossed by the waves and carried about by every wind of teaching, in the caprice of the people, in their craftiness, pursuant to their method of delusion;
15 but speaking the truth in divine love, let its grow up in him in all things, who is the head, Christ;
16 from whom the whole body, being assimilated and knitted together through every joint of the supply, according to the working in each several part, makes increase of the body in the edification of itself in divine love.
17 Therefore I say this, and witness in the Lord, that you no longer walk about as the Gentiles also walk about in the vanity of their mind,
18 being darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God through the ignorance being in themselves, on account of the blindness of their heart;
19 who being past feeling have given themselves up to debauchery, unto the working of all impurity with greediness.
20 But you did not so learn Christ:
21 if indeed ye have heard him, and been taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus:
22 that with reference to your former life, you are to lay aside the old man, who is corrupt in the lusts of deception;
23 and to be renewed in the spirit of your mind,
24 and to put on the new man, who has been created in harmony with God in the righteousness and holiness of the truth.
25 Therefore, having laid aside lying, speak the truth each one with his neighbors: because we are members of one another.
26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your provocation:
27 neither give place to the devil.
28 Let the one stealing steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his own hands doing that which is good, that he may have to give to the one having need.
29 Let no corrupt communication go forth out of your mouth, but if anything is good unto edification of need, in order that he may give grace to those who hear.
30 And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed unto the day of redemption.
31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and blasphemy, depart from you, with all evil.
32 But be ye kind toward one another, merciful, forgiving one another, as indeed God in Christ forgave you.
1 Corinthians 13:5
5 does not behave itself uncomely, seeks not its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
4 Divine love suffers long; divine love is kind; divine love envies not; does not make a display of itself, is not puffed up,
5 does not behave itself uncomely, seeks not its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;
6 it does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but it rejoices in the truth;
7 it bears all things, it believes all things, it hopes all things, it endures all things.
8 Divine love never falls: but whether there are prophecies, they shall be done away; whether there are tongues, they shall cease; whether there is knowledge, it shall vanish away.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
4 Divine love suffers long; divine love is kind; divine love envies not; does not make a display of itself, is not puffed up,
5 does not behave itself uncomely, seeks not its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;
6 it does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but it rejoices in the truth;
7 it bears all things, it believes all things, it hopes all things, it endures all things.
James 1:20
20 for the wrath of man works not the righteousness of God.
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
1 If I may speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not divine love, I have become a sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2 And if I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, and have not divine love, I am nothing.
3 And if I give all my goods to feed the poor, and if I may give my body that I shall be burnt, and have not divine love, I am profited as to nothing.
4 Divine love suffers long; divine love is kind; divine love envies not; does not make a display of itself, is not puffed up,
5 does not behave itself uncomely, seeks not its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;
6 it does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but it rejoices in the truth;
7 it bears all things, it believes all things, it hopes all things, it endures all things.
8 Divine love never falls: but whether there are prophecies, they shall be done away; whether there are tongues, they shall cease; whether there is knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9 For we know in part, and prophesy in part:
10 but when the perfect may come, that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was an infant, I talked like an infant, I thought like an infant, I reasoned like an infant: when I became a man, I put away the things of the infant.
12 For we now see through a mirror in an enigma; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know perfectly even as I am perfectly known.
13 But now abide faith, hope, divine love, these three; but the greatest of these is divine love.
