Love
Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly 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 God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality.
The paragraph on love fits in with Paul’s call to be ‘living sacrifices’ (Ch. 12:1) This call to be a living sacrifice comes “in view of God’s mercy” which is outlined clearly in chapters 3-8.
