then peace-loving, considerate, submissive 
Hebrews 12:11  No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.

full of mercy and good fruit 
Luke 6:35-36  "But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful just as your Father is merciful."

impartial and sincere 
Romans 12:9  Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.
