Let there be no contention among you ---or, at least, put an end to it as quickly as possible-----lest a little anger grow into hatred, and so make of a mote a beam, and render the soul guilty of murder; for you read ," whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer."( 1 John iii. 15)
Whosoever wounds another by offensive language , by wishing her evil, or reproaching her with her faults , should be mindful to make satisfaction as soon as possible; and she who was injured must pardon without many words.
But if both have been offended they must forgive each other . The reason of this is that you may be duly disposed for prayer , which , the more frequent it is, the more holy it should be.
