Matthew 5:44 - "But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you," Luke 6:28-30 - "bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back." Proverbs 17:9 - "Whoever would foster love covers over an offense, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends." Ephesians 4:32 - "Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." Isaiah 41:10 - "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Matthew 5:22 - "But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to a brother or sister, ‘Raca,’ is answerable to the court. And anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of hell." Titus 3:2 - "to slander no one, to be peaceable and considerate, and always to be gentle toward everyone." 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 - "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."
