Christ's Example of Humility

2 So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from ^(A)love, any ^(B)participation in the Spirit, any ^(C)affection and sympathy,

^12 (A)Put on then, as ^(B)God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, ^(C)compassionate hearts, ^(D)kindness, ^(E)humility, meekness, and patience,

^12 (A)No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and ^(B)his love is perfected in us.

God Is Love

⁷ Beloved, ^(A)let us love one another, for love is from God, and ^(B)whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. ^8 (C)Anyone who does not love does not know God, because ^(D)God is love.

^14 (A)The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and ^(B)the love of God and ^(C)the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

When Brothers Dwell in Unity

A Song of ^(A)Ascents. Of David.

² that ^(A)their hearts may be encouraged, being ^(B)knit together in love, to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of ^(C)God's mystery, which is Christ,

¹³ For ^(A)in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—^(B)Jews or Greeks, slaves^[a] or free—and ^(C)all were made to drink of one Spirit.

¹⁸ For ^(A)through him we both have ^(B)access in ^(C)one Spirit to the Father. ¹⁹ So then you are no longer ^(D)strangers and aliens,^[a] but you are ^(E)fellow citizens with the saints and ^(F)members of the household of God, ^20 (G)built on the foundation of the ^(H)apostles and prophets, ^(I)Christ Jesus himself being ^(J)the cornerstone, ^21 (K)in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into ^(L)a holy temple in the Lord. ²² In him ^(M)you also are being built together ^(N)into a dwelling place for God by^[b] the Spirit.
