Humbleness

For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

My beloved brothers, understand this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger,

…for man’s anger does not bring about the righteousness that God desires.

…with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love,

But now you must put aside all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips.

…to malign no one, and to be peaceable and gentle, showing full consideration to everyone.

Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, so that in due time He may exalt you.

Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God,

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
