Colossians 3:15

13 ^abearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.

14 ^aBut above all these things ^bput on love, which is the ^cbond of perfection.

15 And let ^athe peace of God rule in your hearts, ^bto which also you were called ^cin one body; and ^dbe thankful.

16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another ^ain psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

17 And ^awhatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.

The Christian Home

18 ^aWives, submit to your own husbands, ^bas is fitting in the Lord.
