In harmony with one another we share the love of Christ and become examples of the goodness accomplished in his name. But in conflict with one another we work against His purpose and distract everyone from the Gospel. Live together in peace, spreading good will among men. Strive for harmony.
Those who show mercy to others are happy, because God will show mercy to them. Those who are pure in their thinking are happy, because they will be with God. Those who work to bring peace are happy, because God will call them his children. Matthew 5:7-9
Live in peace with each other. Do not be proud, but make friends with those who seem unimportant. Do not think how smart you are. If someone does wrong to you, do not pay him back by doing wrong to him. Try to do what everyone thinks is right. Do your best to live in peace with everyone. Romans 12:16-18
Keep on loving each other as brothers and sisters. Hebrews 13:1
People who work for peace in a peaceful way plant a good crop of right-living. James 3:18
Finally, all of you should be in agreement, understanding each other, loving each other as family, being kind and humble. 1 Peter 3:8
