Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord\u2019s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.<\/p>\n<p>Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.<\/p>\n<p>Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God\u2019s wrath, for it is written: \u201cIt is mine to avenge; I will repay,\u201d says the Lord. On the contrary:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.<\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_490\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-19555-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/fraynelson.com\/conferencias\/conferencias_mp3\/decision_time_2_of_6_outer_battle.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/fraynelson.com\/conferencias\/conferencias_mp3\/decision_time_2_of_6_outer_battle.mp3\">http:\/\/fraynelson.com\/conferencias\/conferencias_mp3\/decision_time_2_of_6_outer_battle.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Spiritual Retreat preached for lay people at St. Patrick&#8217;s, in Miami Beach.] Talk 2 of 6: The Outer Battle The various battle-fields: 1.
