John 14

[22] Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, "Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?"
[23] Jesus answered him, "If a man loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
[24] He who does not love me does not keep my words; and the word which you hear is not mine but the Father's who sent me.

1 Corinthians 13

[4]

Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful;

[5] it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;
[6] it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right.
[7] Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Matthew 18

[1]

At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?"

[2] And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them,
[3] and said, "Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
[4] Whoever humbles himself like this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
[5]

"Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me;

[6] but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened round his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.

[15] The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous,
and his ears toward their cry.

to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

Numbers 23

[19] God is not man, that he should lie,
or a son of man, that he should repent.

Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfil it?

Proverbs 14

[31] He who oppresses a poor man insults his Maker,
