Romans 12:17

Living In Love

¹⁶ Be unanimous among yourselves, not high minded, but accommodating the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion. ¹⁷ Never pay back evil for evil to anyone. Respect what is right in the sight of all men. ¹⁸ If it can be done, as much as is possible on your part, live in peace with all men.

That Which Is Good

No
