Put
on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies,
kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; it is our duty to forgive
one another, imitating the forgiveness through which we are saved.
- Colossians 3: 12-15
It is our duty to be kind and compassionate towards all. We must not only do no
hurt to any, but do what good we can to all. Forgive all men Forbearing one
another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even
as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfect- ness.
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in
one body; and be ye thankful.
Dress
yourself with kindness, meekness and be patient with your neighbors or
fellowman. As developing these virtues we should be forgiving toward that fellow
church member and remember they to are in the process of being perfected. They
too obtain flaws and deficiencies and weaknesses.
One
must not do anything to hurt another, but do what good we can to all. Forbear
and forgive. Forgive everyone. It is our duty to be kind and compassionate
towards all.
It
will act as an umpire and makes good decisions. Love is the crowning grace. Love
binds all other virtues together in harmony and unity. God then gives us the
peace we need. This peace should rule among God's people.
The
soul will prosper when we are full of the Scriptures and of the grace of
Christ. When believers are at odds with each other whatever course of
action best maintains peace and harmony is the course to be taken. Let the peace
of God rule in your heart. Just do it!
