• Jesus taught His disciples that perspective both by 
example and by precept: 
PHILIPPIANS 2:5-10 
• “5Have this attitude (manner, thoughts, outlook, 
approach, mind-set) in yourselves which was also in Christ 
Jesus, 6who, although He existed in the form of God, did not 
regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7but emptied 
Himself, taking the form of a bboonndd--sseerrvvaanntt, and being made 
in the likeness of men. 8Being found in appearance as a man, 
HHee hhuummbblleedd HHiimmsseellff by becoming oobbeeddiieenntt to the point of 
death, even death on a cross. 9For this reason also, God 
highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is 
above every name, 10so that at the name of Jesus EEVVEERRYY 
KKNNEEEE WWIILLLL BBOOWW, of those who are in heaven and on earth 
and under the earth, 11and that every tongue will confess 
that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the gglloorryy ooff GGoodd tthhee FFaatthheerr.””

RRoommaannss 1122::99--2211 
“9 LLeett lloovvee bbee ggeennuuiinnee.. Abhor what is evil; hold 
fast to what is good. 10 Love one another with 
brotherly affection. Outdo one another in 
showing honor. 11 Do not be slothful in zeal, be 
fervent in spirit,[a] serve the Lord. 12 Rejoice in hope, 
be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. 13 
Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek 
to show hospitality.” 
“14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do 
not curse them. 15 Rejoice with those who 
rejoice, weep with those who weep. 16 Live in 
harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, 
but associate with the lowly.[b] Never be wise in 
your own sight.
• 17 Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to 
do what is honorable in the sight of all. 18 If 
possible, so far as it depends on you, live 
peaceably with all. 19 Beloved, never avenge 
yourselves, but leave it[c] to the wrath of God, 
for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, 
says the Lord.” 20 To the contrary, “if your 
enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give 
him something to drink; for by so doing you will 
heap burning coals on his head.” 21 Do not be 
overcome by evil, but overcome evil with 
good.”
