Blessed are the peacemakers
You are the salt of the earth
Love your enemies
Anyone who looks lustfully has committed adultery
Give us today our daily bread
No one can serve two masters
Seek first God’s kingdom
Go the extra mile
Turn the other cheek
Do not worry
Do not judge
Do to others as you would have them do to you
– MATTHEW 5-7
