SESSION 4 - LOVE, DIFFERENCES AND CONFLICTS (page 16)

1 Cor. 13:4-7
4
Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5 or rude. Love does
not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been
wronged. 6 It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7 Love
never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every
circumstance.

John
13:34-35
34
So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved
you, you should love each other. 35 Your love for one another will prove to the world that
you are my disciples.”

Ephesians 4:1-3
Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling,
for you have been called by God. 2 Be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other,
making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love. 3 Always keep yourselves
united in the Holy Spirit, and bind yourselves together with peace.

Philippians 2:3-4
3
Don’t be selfish; don’t live to make a good impression on others. Be humble, thinking of
others as better than yourself. 4 Don’t think only about your own affairs, but be interested
in others, too, and what they are doing.1

1 Peter 5:5-6
5
You younger men, accept the authority of the elders. And all of you, serve each other
in humility, for
“God sets himself against the proud,
but he shows favor to the humble.”*
6
So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and in his good time he will
honor you.

Matthew 11:28-29
28
Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I
will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and
gentle, and you will find rest for your souls. 2

1 Cor. 13:4

7
But if we are living in the light of God’s presence, just as Christ is, then we have
fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from every sin.
8
If we say we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and refusing to accept the
truth. 9 But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us and to
cleanse us from every wrong.

Finally, all of you should be of one mind, full of sympathy toward each other, loving one
another with tender hearts and humble minds. 9 Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate
when people say unkind things about you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is
what God wants you to do, and he will bless you for it.20

(PG. 23)
Ephesians 5:21-22
21
And further, you will submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. 22 You wives
will submit to your husbands as you do to the Lord. 23 For a husband is the head of his
wife as Christ is the head of his body, the church; he gave his life to be her Savior. 24 As
the church submits to Christ, so you wives must submit to your husbands in everything.
25
And you husbands must love your wives with the same love Christ showed the
church. He gave up his life for her 26 to make her holy and clean, washed by baptism and
God’s word.* 27 He did this to present her to himself as a glorious church without a spot or
wrinkle or any other blemish. Instead, she will be holy and without fault. 28 In the same
way, husbands ought to love their wives as they love their own bodies. For a man is
actually loving himself when he loves his wife. 29 No one hates his own body but lovingly
cares for it, just as Christ cares for his body, which is the church. 30 And we are his body.
31
As the Scriptures say, “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife,
and the two are united into one.”* 32 This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the
way Christ and the church are one. 33 So again I say, each man must love his wife as he
loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
21

1 Peter 3:1-9
3
All honor to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, for it is by his boundless
mercy that God has given us the privilege of being born again. Now we live with a
wonderful expectation because Jesus Christ rose again from the dead. 4 For God has
reserved a priceless inheritance for his children. It is kept in heaven for you, pure and
undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay. 5 And God, in his mighty power, will
protect you until you receive this salvation, because you are trusting him. It will be
revealed on the last day for all to see. 6 So be truly glad!* There is wonderful joy ahead,
even though it is necessary for you to endure many trials for a while.
7
These trials are only to test your faith, to show that it is strong and pure. It is being
tested as fire tests and purifies gold—and your faith is far more precious to God than
mere gold. So if your faith remains strong after being tried by fiery trials, it will bring
you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the
whole world.
8
You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him,
you trust him; and even now you are happy with a glorious, inexpressible joy. 9 Your
reward for trusting him will be the salvation of your souls.

for your law is written on my heart.”
24

Philippians 2:12-13
12
Dearest friends, you were always so careful to follow my instructions when I was with
you. And now that I am away you must be even more careful to put into action God’s
saving work in your lives, obeying God with deep reverence and fear. 13 For God is
working in you, giving you the desire to obey him and the power to do what pleases
him.25

1 Timothy 6:6
6
Yet true religion with contentment is great wealth. 38

Proverbs 31
10
Who can find a virtuous and capable wife? She is worth more than precious rubies. 11
Her husband can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life. 12 She will not hinder him
but help him all her life.
13
She finds wool and flax and busily spins it. 14 She is like a merchant’s ship; she
brings her food from afar. 15 She gets up before dawn to prepare breakfast for her
household and plan the day’s work for her servant girls. 16 She goes out to inspect a field
and buys it; with her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17
She is energetic and strong, a hard worker. 18 She watches for bargains; her lights
burn late into the night. 19 Her hands are busy spinning thread, her fingers twisting fiber.
20
She extends a helping hand to the poor and opens her arms to the needy.
21
She has no fear of winter for her household because all of them have warm* clothes.
22
She quilts her own bedspreads. She dresses like royalty in gowns of finest cloth.
23
Her husband is well known, for he sits in the council meeting with the other civic
leaders.
24
She makes belted linen garments and sashes to sell to the merchants.
25
She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs with no fear of the future. 26
When she speaks, her words are wise, and kindness is the rule when she gives
instructions. 27 She carefully watches all that goes on in her household and does not have
to bear the consequences of laziness.
28
Her children stand and bless her. Her husband praises her: 29 “There are many
virtuous and capable women in the world, but you surpass them all!”
30
Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the LORD will
be greatly praised. 31 Reward her for all she has done. Let her deeds publicly declare her
praise.

Amos 3:3
3
Can two people walk together without agreeing on the direction?39

1 Peter 3:3-6
3
Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty that depends on fancy hairstyles,
expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. 4 You should be known for the beauty that comes
from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God.
5
That is the way the holy women of old made themselves beautiful. They trusted God and
accepted the authority of their husbands. 6 For instance, Sarah obeyed her husband,
Abraham, when she called him her master. You are her daughters when you do what is
right without fear of what your husbands might do.40
