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 must you do also.

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

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