Matthew 22:37-40 (KJV)
\n37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
\n38 This is the first and great commandment.
\n39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
\n40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.<\/p>\n

1 Corinthians 13 (KJV)
\n13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
\n2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
\n3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
\n4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
\n5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
\n6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
\n7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
\n8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
\n9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
\n10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
\n11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
\n12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
\n13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.<\/p>\n

Ephesians 4 (KJV)
\n4 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
\n2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;
\n3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
\n4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
\n5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
\n6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
\n7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
\n8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.
\n9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?
\n10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)
\n11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
\n12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
\n13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
\n14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
\n15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
\n16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.
\n17 This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,
\n18 Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:
\n19 Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.
\n20 But ye have not so learned Christ;
\n21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:
\n22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
\n23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
\n24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
\n25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
\n26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
\n27 Neither give place to the devil.
\n28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
\n29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
\n30 And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
\n31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:
\n32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.<\/p>\n
