Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification.

So then let us pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding.

So then, let us aim for harmony in the church and try to build each other up.

So then, let us pursue what promotes peace and what builds up one another.

So then we pursue the things which make for peace and the building up of one another.

Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another.

So then let us follow after things which make for peace, and things whereby we may edify one another.

So then, we must pursue what promotes peace and what builds up one another.

Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.

So then, let us pursue what makes for peace and for building up one another.

So then, let’s follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.

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.

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

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

Each of us should please our neighbors. Let us do what is good for them in order to build them up.

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

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.

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

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.Put up with one another. Forgive one another if you are holding something against someone. Forgive, just as the Lord forgave you.And over all these good things put on love. Love holds them all together perfectly as if they were one.Let the peace that Christ gives rule in your hearts. As parts of one body, you were appointed to live in peace. And be thankful.

“ Salt is good. But suppose it loses its saltiness. How can you make it salty again? Have salt among yourselves. And be at peace with each other.”

Brothers and sisters, what should we say then? When you come together, each of you brings something. You bring a hymn or a teaching or a message from God. You bring a message in another language or explain what was said in that language. Everything must be done to build up the church.

They must turn away from evil and do good. They must look for peace and go after it.

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.None of you should look out just for your own good. Each of you should also look out for the good of others.

Is anyone among you wise and understanding? That person should show it by living a good life. A wise person isn’t proud when they do good deeds.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.

Follow my example. I try to please everyone in every way. I’m not looking out for what is good for me. I’m looking out for the interests of others. I do it so that they might be saved.

Blessed are those who make peace. They will be called children of God.

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.

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.But each one of us has received a gift of grace. These gifts are given to us by Christ.

So encourage one another with the hope you have. Build each other up. In fact, that’s what you are doing.Brothers and sisters, we ask you to accept the godly leaders who work hard among you. They care for you in the Lord. They correct you.

All this time, have you been thinking that I’ve been speaking up for myself? No, I’ve been speaking with God as my witness. I’ve been speaking like a believer in Christ. Dear friends, everything I do is to help you become stronger.

It’s the same with you. You want the gifts of the Spirit. So try to do your best in using gifts that build up the church.So here is what the person who speaks in languages they had not known before should do. They should pray that they can explain what they say.If I pray in another language, my spirit prays. But my mind does not pray.So what should I do? I will pray with my spirit. But I will also pray with my understanding. I will sing with my spirit. But I will also sing with my understanding.Suppose you are praising God in the Spirit. And suppose there are visitors among you who want to know what’s going on. How can they say“ Amen” when you give thanks? They don’t know what you are saying.You are certainly giving thanks. But no one else is being built up.

And command them not to spend their time on stories that are made up. They must not waste time on family histories that never end. These things only lead to fights about ideas. They don’t help God’s work move forward. His work is done by faith.

But if the unbeliever leaves, let that person go. In that case, the believer does not have to stay married to the unbeliever. God wants us to live in peace.
