If a man take away thy goods, ask them not again (Luke 6:29, 30).
Agree with your adversary quickly, submitting even to wrong for the sake of peace (Matt. 5:25; 1 Cor. 6:7).
Labor not to be rich: be ready to every good work, give to those who ask; relieve the afflicted (1 Tim. 6:8; Rom. 12:13; Heb. 13:16; James 1:27).
Do not your alms before men: Let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth (Matt. 6:1-4).

Pray for them that despitefully use you and afflict you (Matt. 5:44).Grudge not: judge not: complain not: condemn not (James 5:9; Matt. 7:1).Confess your faults one to another (James 5:16).
Be not conformed to this world: love not the world (Rom. 12:2; 1 John 2:15). Deny all ungodliness and worldly lusts. If thy right hand offend thee, cut it off (Titus 2:13; Matt. 5:30).
In case of sin (known or heard of) speak not of it to others, but tell the offending brother of the matter between thee and him alone, with a view to recovery (Matt. 18:15; Gal. 6:1). Love the Lord thy God with all they heart (Matt. 22:37).Pray always; pray with brevity and simplicity; pray secretly (Luke 18:1; Matt. 6:7).
In everything give thanks to God and recognize Him in all your ways (Eph. 5:20; Prov. 3:6).
As you would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them (Matt. 7:12).
Take Christ for an example and follow in his steps (1 Pet. 2:21).

Be blameless and harmless, as the sons of God in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation (Phil. 2:15). Be gentile, meek, kind-hearted, compassionate, merciful, forgiving (2 Tim. 2:24; Titus 2:2; Eph. 4:32). Be sober, grave, sincere, temperate (Phil. 4:5; 1 Pet. 1:13; 5:8).
Speak the truth every man with his neighbor: put away all lying (Eph. 4:25).
Whatsoever ye do, do it heartily as unto the Lord, and not unto men (Col. 3:23).Be watchful, vigilant, brave, joyful, courteous, and strong (1 Cor. 16:13; Phil. 4:4; 1 Thess. 5:6-10). Be clothed with humility; be patient toward all (Col. 3:12; Rom. 12:12). Follow peace with all men (Heb. 12:14).
Sympathize in the joys and sorrows of others (Rom. 12:15).Follow after whatsoever things are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, of good report, virtuous, and praiseful (Phil. 4:8).
Refrain utterly from adultery, fornication, uncleanness, drunkenness, covetousness, wrath, strife, sedition, hatred, emulation, boasting, vainglory, envy, jesting, and foolish talking (Eph. 5:3,4).
Whatever you do, consider the effect of your action on the honor of God's name among men. Do all to the glory of God (1 Cor. 10:31; 3:17). Reckon yourselves dead to all manner of sin. Henceforth live not to yourselves, but to him who died for you, and rose again (Rom. 6-11; 2 Cor. 5:15).
Be zealous of good works, always abounding in the work of the Lord, wearying not in well doing (Titus 2:14; Gal. 6:9).Speak evil of no man (Titus 3:2). Let the word of Christ swell in you richly (Col. 3:16). Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt (Col. 3:8; 4:6).
Obey rules; submit to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake (Titus 3:1).Be holy in all manner of conversation (1 Pet. 1:15, 16). Give no occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully (1 Tim. 5:14).
