Proverbs 15:1
1) A gentle answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger.
Luke 10:30-37
30) Jesus answered, "A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
31) By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32) In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side.
33) But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,
34) came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35) On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.‘
36) Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?"
37) He said, "He who showed mercy on him." Then Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise."
Galatians 5:22-23
22) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23) gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
Ephesians 4:1-3,
1) I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called,
2) with all lowliness and humility, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love;
3) being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
5:8-10
Philippians 3:12-17
12) Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, if it is so that I may take hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus.
13) Brothers, I don‘t regard myself as yet having laid hold, but one thing I do. Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before,
14) I press on toward the goal to the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
15) Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, this God will also reveal that to you.
16) Nevertheless, to the extent that we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule. Let us be of the same mind.
17) Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.
James 5:7-11
7) Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain.
8) You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
9) Don‘t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won‘t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.
10) Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of patience, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
11) Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the Lord in the end, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
2 Timothy 2:23-26
23) But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that they generate strife.
24) The Lord‘s servant must not quarrel, but be gentle towards all, able to teach, patient,
25) in gentleness correcting those who oppose him; if perhaps God may give them repentance to the knowledge of the truth,
26) and they may recover themselves out of the devil‘s snare, having been taken captive by him to his will.
Titus 3:1-5
1) Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to every good work,
2) to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all gentleness toward all men.
3) For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
4) But when the kindness of God, our Savior, and his love toward man, appeared,
5) not by works of righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
