Salt is good for seasoning. But if it loses its flavor, how do you make it salty again? You must have the qualities of salt among yourselves and live in peace with each other.”

Let the words you speak always be full of grace. Learn how to make your words what people want to hear. Then you will know how to answer everyone.

“ You are the salt of the earth. But suppose the salt loses its saltiness. How can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything. It will be thrown out. People will walk all over it.

If possible, live in peace with everyone. Do that as much as you can.

Try your best to live in peace with everyone. Try hard to be holy. Without holiness no one will see the Lord.

Is food that doesn’t have any taste eaten without salt? Is there any flavor in the sap of a mallow plant?

Finally, brothers and sisters, be joyful! Work to make things right with one another. Help one another and agree with one another. Live in peace. And the God who gives love and peace will be with you.

“ Salt is good. But suppose it loses its saltiness. How can it be made salty again?It is not good for the soil. And it is not good for the trash pile. It will be thrown out.“ Whoever has ears should listen.”

Don’t let any evil talk come out of your mouths. Say only what will help to build others up and meet their needs. Then what you say will help those who listen.

Have a lot of respect for them. Love them because of what they do. Live in peace with one another.

But suppose your hearts are jealous and bitter. Suppose you are concerned only about getting ahead. Then don’t brag about it. And don’t say no to the truth.Wisdom like this doesn’t come down from heaven. It belongs to the earth. It doesn’t come from the Holy Spirit. It comes from the devil.Are you jealous? Are you concerned only about getting ahead? Then your life will be a mess. You will be doing all kinds of evil things.But the wisdom that comes from heaven is pure. That’s the most important thing about it. And that’s not all. It also loves peace. It thinks about others. It obeys. It is full of mercy and good fruit. It is fair. It doesn’t pretend to be what it is not.Those who make peace plant it like a seed. They will harvest a crop of right living.

So does belonging to Christ help you in any way? Does his love comfort you at all? Do you share anything in common because of the Holy Spirit? Has Christ ever been gentle and loving toward you?If any of these things has happened to you, then agree with one another. Have the same love. Be one in spirit and in the way you think and act. By doing this, you will make my joy complete.Don’t do anything only to get ahead. Don’t do it because you are proud. Instead, be humble. Value others more than yourselves.

Run away from the evil things that young people long for. Try hard to do what is right. Have faith, love and peace. Do these things together with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.

You are God’s chosen people. You are holy and dearly loved. So put on tender mercy and kindness as if they were your clothes. Don’t be proud. Be gentle and patient.

Get rid of all hard feelings, anger and rage. Stop all fighting and lying. Don’t have anything to do with any kind of hatred.Be kind and tender to one another. Forgive one another, just as God forgave you because of what Christ has done.

Human anger doesn’t produce the holy life God wants.

No matter what happens, live in a way that brings honor to the good news about Christ. Then I will know that you remain strong together in the one Spirit. I will know this if I come and see you or only hear about you. I will know that you work together as one person. I will know that you work to spread the teachings about the good news.

But the fruit the Holy Spirit produces is love, joy and peace. It is being patient, kind and good. It is being faithful

Finally, I want all of you to agree with one another. Be understanding. Love one another. Be kind and tender. Be humble.

Don’t be proud at all. Be completely gentle. Be patient. Put up with one another in love.The Holy Spirit makes you one in every way. So try your best to remain as one. Let peace keep you together.There is one body and one Spirit. You were appointed to one hope when you were chosen.There is one Lord, one faith and one baptism.There is one God and Father of all. He is over everything. He is through everything. He is in everything.

How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in peace!

Turn away from evil, and do good. Look for peace, and go after it.

“ I give you a new command. Love one another. You must love one another, just as I have loved you.If you love one another, everyone will know you are my disciples.”

But they kept quiet. On the way, they had argued about which one of them was the most important person.

Here is my command. Love one another.“ My disciples, does the world hate you? Remember that it hated me first.

The whole law is fulfilled by obeying this one command.“ Love your neighbor as you love yourself.”( Leviticus 19:18)If you say or do things that harm one another, watch out! You could end up destroying one another.

God’s kingdom is not about eating or drinking. It is about doing what is right and having peace and joy. All this comes through the Holy Spirit.Those who serve Christ in this way are pleasing to God. They are pleasing to people too.So let us do all we can to live in peace. And let us work hard to build up one another.
