Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Ephesians 4:31
Citizens of the New Kingdom seek to live in peace with others in this world. We turn away from the anger, conflicts and turmoil that seem to exist in every step we take. Words are said with deliberate intent to hurt and cause resentment which leads to bitterness. The forgiveness that the world offers comes with a price. This is the world we are living in.
Citizens of the New Kingdom are called to live a different way of life. We are called to forgive freely so that we will not accumulate bitterness in our hearts, we will avoid rage and anger, we will stay away from name-callings and slander, we will seek to remove envy and malicious intent from our lives.
Citizens of the New Kingdom seek to live in love, peace, patience and looking after the welfare of others. We follow the example of King Jesus in forgiving all who wrong us.
