Redemption House Social Covenant
Matthew 22:37-39 Jesus replied: '.Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul
and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it
'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
1 Peter 3:8-11 Finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate
and humble. 9 Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with
blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing. 10 For, Whoever would
love life and see good days must keep their tongue from evil and their lips from deceitful speech.
11 They must turn from evil and do good; they must seek peace and pursue it.
Colossians 3:12-14 Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with
compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13 Bear with each other and forgive one
another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14 And over
all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
Colossians 3:23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for
human maste.
