Life in God's Service
Do not conform yourselves to the standards of this world, but let God transform you inwardly... Then you will be able to know the will of God...
Love must be completely sincere. Hate what is evil, hold on to what is good.
Love one another warmly as christians, and be eager to show respect for one another.
Work hard and do not be lazy. Serve the Lord with a heart full of devotion.
Let your hope keep you joyful, be patient in your troubles, and pray at all times.
Share your belongings with your needy fellow Christians, and open your homes to strangers.
Ask God to bless those who persecute you - yes, ask him to bless, not to curse.
Be happy with those who are happy, weep with those who weep.
Have the same concern for everyone. Do not be proud, but accept humble duties.
Do not think of yourselves as wise...
Do not let evil defeat you; instead conquer evil with good.
Romans 12 (parts of)
