To be at peace with one another ...

Jesus said, "Have salt among yourselves,

and be at peace with each other" (Mark 9:50).

For us to be at peace with one another,

the following are necessary:

Self-Sacrifice (Mark 9:50)

Just as salt dissolves, we must give of ourselves.

Self-Denial (Mark 8:34)

Instead of focusing on human concerns, we should focus on the things of God.

Humility (Mark 9:34–37)

A proud person cannot live in harmony with others.

Service (Mark 9:41)

Serve others with the strength God provides, being faithful even in small things.
