3. Romans 12:17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.

4. Throughout Scripture Christians are told to love others. Love does no harm to its neighbor. We are not to hurt others physically or emotionally.

5. Words do hurt people. Think before you say something to hurt someone’s feelings. Not only words said directly to the person, but words said when that person is not around.

6. Slander, gossip, lying, etc. is all evil and Christians should have nothing to do with these. Even if someone hurts us we are to be imitators of Christ and pay no one back for what they have done. Always be willing to apologize to others.

7. Forgive just like God forgave you. Put others before yourself and be careful what comes out your mouth. Do what leads to peace and do all things for the glory of God.

8. As believers we must be considerate of others. We should never mistreat others nor cause believers to stumble. We should always check to see how will our actions help someone in need. We should always check to see if our decisions in life will hurt others.
