Finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble.
Finally, all of you, be like-minded
Romans 15:5-6 May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had, so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Philippians 2:1-2 Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind.
be sympathetic
Romans 12:15 Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.
1 Corinthians 12:26 If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.
love one another
Romans 12:10 Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.
1 Thessalonians 4:9 Now about your love for one another we do not need to write to you, for your yourselves have been taught by God to love each other.
be compassionate
Colossians 3:12 Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.
and humble
Ephesians 4:2 Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.
1 Peter 5:5 In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves to your elders. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because, "God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble." (Proverbs 3:34)
Philippians 2:6-8 Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death--even death on a cross!
