It is to be gentle 2 Timothy 2:24-25 The Lord's bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged, with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth….

It is to be gentle 2 Thessalonians 3:14-15 If anyone does not obey our instruction in this letter, take special note of that person and do not associate with him, so that he will be put to shame. Yet do not regard him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

It is to be patient 2 Timothy 4:2 …preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction.

It is to be Christ-like 1 Peter 2:21 For you have been called for this purpose, since Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example for you to follow in His steps….

It is to be Christ-like 1 Corinthians 11:1 Be imitators of me, just as I also am of Christ.

It is to be firm 1 Corinthians 5:3-5 For I, on my part, though absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged him who has so committed this, as though I were present…. 1 Corinthians 5:3-5 For I, on my part, though absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged him who has so committed this, as though I were present….
