Seek peace and pursue it. - Psalm 34:14.
2 Corinthian 5:20 - Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
2 Timothy 2:15 - Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith. - Galatians 6:10.
Proverbs 25:11 - A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. 19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. - Romans 12:17-21.

2 Corinthians 5:
18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.
20 We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God.
I wish that more people preached the Gospel instead of all the politics and sin calling. The message of reconciliation is more important than any other message. And yet, we see other messages daily and in abundance.
WE ARE NOT OF THE WORLD!

Matthew 5:14
"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.
I think that whole section in matthew on the salt and light is good as well.

It's difficult to find anything that specifically represents GOOD in the Bible...that's one of the major issues with the "Good Book". It's not so good...has war, rape, incest, killing, maming, etc. This directly via Heaven from our "loving God' (assuming there's a Heaven and a God). PEACE!

"Ye are the temple of the Holy GHost"
"Christ as a son over His own House ; WHOSE HOUSE ARE WE , , if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end "
