Arguing

A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

But reject foolish and ignorant speculation, for you know that it breeds quarreling.

And a servant of the Lord must not be quarrelsome, but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, and forbearing.

So then, let us pursue what leads to peace and to mutual edification.

But avoid foolish controversies, genealogies, arguments, and quarrels about the law, because these things are pointless and worthless.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

…gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

An angry man stirs up dissension, and a hot-tempered man abounds in transgression.

Remind the believers to submit to rulers and authorities, to be obedient and ready for every good work,

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

A fool vents all his anger, but a wise man holds it back.

Do not accuse a man without cause, when he has done you no harm.

Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on his opinions.
