Grudges

Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, outcry and slander, along with every form of malice.

Be kind and tenderhearted to one another, forgiving each other just as in Christ God forgave you.

Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against any of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD.

For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.

But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive yours.

And when you stand to pray, if you hold anything against another, forgive it, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your trespasses as well.”

“Be angry, yet do not sin.” Do not let the sun set upon your anger,

Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers all transgressions.

Do to others as you would have them do to you.

Watch yourselves. If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.

Even if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times returns to say, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”

What causes conflicts and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from the passions at war within you?

A man’s insight gives him patience, and his virtue is to overlook an offense.
