Scripture Citations
- “Stop being angry! Turn from your rage! Do not lose your temper- it only leads to harm.” (Psalms 37:8)
- “Again I say, don’t get involved in foolish, ignorant arguments that only start fights. A servant of the Lord must not quarrel but must be kind to everyone, be able to teach, and be patient with difficult people. Gently instruct those who oppose the truth. Perhaps God will change those people’s hearts, and they will learn the truth. Then they will come to their senses and escape from the devil’s trap. For they have been held captive by him to do whatever he wants.” (2 Timothy 2:23-26)
- “Fathers, do not aggravate your children, or they will become discouraged” (Colossians 3:21)
