Colossians 3:12-15

12So, as those who have been 1chosen of God, holy and beloved, 2put on a 3heart of compassion, kindness, 4humility, gentleness and 56patience;

137bearing with one another, and 8forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; 9just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you.

14Beyond all these things put on love, which is 1011the perfect bond of 12unity.

15Let 13the peace of Christ 14rule in your hearts, to which 15indeed you were called in 16one body; and 17be thankful.
