Bible verses about "rudeness" | WNT

⁶ If any one does not continue in me, he is like the unfruitful branch which is at once thrown away and then withers up. Such branches they gather up and throw into the fire and they are burned.

² Always carry one another's burdens, and so obey the whole of Christ's Law.

¹ I exhort then, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions and thanksgivings be offered on behalf of all men; ² including kings and all who are in high station, in order that we may live peaceful and tranquil lives with all godliness and gravity. ³ This is right, and is pleasing in the sight of God our Saviour, ⁴ who is willing for all mankind to be saved and come to a full knowledge of the truth. ⁵ For there is but one God and but one Mediator between God and men--Christ Jesus, Himself man; ⁶ who gave Himself as the redemption price for all--a fact testified to at its own appointed time, ⁷ and of which I have been appointed a herald and an Apostle (I am speaking the truth: it is not a fiction), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth. ⁸ So then I would have the men everywhere pray, lifting to God holy hands which are unstained with anger or strife; ⁹ and I would have the women dress becomingly, with modesty and self-control, not with plaited hair or gold or pearls or costly clothes, ¹⁰ but--as befits women making a claim to godliness--with the ornament of good works. ¹¹ A woman should quietly learn from others with entire submissiveness. ¹² I do not permit a woman to teach, nor have authority over a man, but she must remain silent. ¹³ For Adam was formed first, and then Eve; ¹⁴ and Adam was not deceived, but his wife was thoroughly deceived, and so became involved in transgression. ¹⁵ Yet a woman will be brought safely through childbirth if she and her husband continue to live in faith and love and growing holiness, with habitual self-restraint.

⁶ And the tongue is a fire. That world of iniquity, the tongue, is placed within us spotting and soiling our whole nature, and setting the whole round of our lives on fire, being itself set on fire by Gehenna.

¹ Rid yourselves therefore of all ill-will and all deceitfulness, of insincerity and envy, and of all evil speaking. ² Thirst, like newly-born infants, for pure milk for the soul, that by it you may grow up to salvation; ³ if you have had any experience of the goodness of the Lord. ⁴ Come to Him, the ever-living Stone, rejected indeed by men as worthless, but in God's esteem chosen and held in honour. ⁵ And be yourselves also like living stones that are being built up into a spiritual house, to become a holy priesthood to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. ⁶ For it is contained in Scripture, "SEE, I AM PLACING ON MOUNT ZION A CORNERSTONE, CHOSEN, AND HELD IN HONOUR, AND HE WHOSE FAITH RESTS ON HIM SHALL NEVER HAVE REASON TO FEEL ASHAMED." ⁷ To you believers, therefore, that honour belongs; but for unbelievers-- "A STONE WHICH THE BUILDERS REJECTED HAS BEEN MADE THE CORNERSTONE," ⁸ and "A STONE FOR THE FOOT TO STRIKE AGAINST, AND A ROCK TO STUMBLE OVER." Their foot strikes against it because they are disobedient to God's Message, and to this they were appointed. ⁹ But you are a chosen race, a priesthood of kingly lineage, a holy nation, a people belonging specially to God, that you may make known the perfections of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvellous light. ¹⁰ Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God. Once you had not found mercy, but now you have. ¹¹ Dear friends, I entreat you as pilgrims and foreigners not to indulge the cravings of your lower natures: for all such cravings wage war upon the soul. ¹² Live honourable lives among the Gentiles, in order that, although they now speak against you as evil-doers, they may yet witness your good conduct, and may glorify God on the day of reward and retribution. ¹³ Submit, for the Lord's sake, to every authority set up by man, whether it be to the Emperor as supreme ruler, ¹⁴ or to provincial Governors as sent by him for the punishment of evil-doers and the encouragement of those who do what is right. ¹⁵ For it is God's will that by doing what is right you should thus silence the ignorant talk of foolish persons. ¹⁶ Be free men, and yet do not make your freedom an excuse for base conduct, but be God's bondservants. ¹⁷ Honour every one. Love the brotherhood, fear God, honour the Emperor. ¹⁸ Household servants, be submissive to your masters, and show them the utmost respect--not only if they are kind and thoughtful, but also if they are unreasonable. ¹⁹ For it is an acceptable thing with God, if, from a sense of duty to Him, a man patiently submits to wrong, when treated unjustly. ²⁰ If you do wrong and receive a blow for it, what credit is there in your bearing it patiently? But if when you do right and suffer for it you bear it patiently, this is an acceptable thing with God. ²¹ And it is to this you were called; because Christ also suffered on your behalf, leaving you an example so that you should follow in His steps. ²² He never sinned, and no deceitful language was ever heard from His mouth. ²³ When He was reviled, He did not answer with reviling; when He suffered He uttered no threats, but left His wrongs in the hands of the righteous Judge. ²⁴ The burden of our sins He Himself carried in His own body to the Cross and bore it there, so that we, having died so far as our sins are concerned, may live righteous lives. By His wounds yours have been healed. ²⁵ For you were straying like lost sheep, but now you have come back to the Shepherd and Protector of your souls.

¹ If I can speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but am destitute of Love, I have but become a loud-sounding trumpet or a clanging cymbal. ² If I possess the gift of prophecy and am versed in all mysteries and all knowledge, and have such absolute faith that I can remove mountains, but am destitute of Love, I am nothing. ³ And if I distribute all my possessions to the poor, and give up my body to be burned, but am destitute of Love, it profits me nothing. ⁴ Love is patient and kind. Love knows neither envy nor jealousy. Love is not forward and self-assertive, nor boastful and conceited. ⁵ She does not behave unbecomingly, nor seek to aggrandize herself, nor blaze out in passionate anger, nor brood over wrongs. ⁶ She finds no pleasure in injustice done to others, but joyfully sides with the truth. ⁷ She knows how to be silent. She is full of trust, full of hope, full of patient endurance. ⁸ Love never fails. But if there are prophecies, they will be done away with; if there are languages, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be brought to an end. ⁹ For our knowledge is imperfect, and so is our prophesying; ¹⁰ but when the perfect state of things is come, all that is imperfect will be brought to an end. ¹¹ When I was a child, I talked like a child, felt like a child, reasoned like a child: when I became a man, I put from me childish ways. ¹² For the present we see things as if in a mirror, and are puzzled; but then we shall see them face to face. For the present the knowledge I gain is imperfect; but then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. ¹³ And so there remain Faith, Hope, Love--these three; and of these the greatest is Love.

²² But I say to you that every one who becomes angry with his brother shall be answerable to the magistrate; that whoever says to his brother 'Raca,' shall be answerable to the Sanhedrin; and that whoever says, 'You fool!' shall be liable to the Gehenna of Fire.
