Genuine faith looks like controlling one's tongue. A community which is humble and open to God's wisdom will be peaceable. 

Christians should not favor the rich over the poor. Instead, they should live in a way that demonstrates the inward reality of their faith. 

Believers should count trials to be a blessing because they produce endurance in their faith. Genuine faith heeds the word and lives righteously in the world. 

Since Jesus is better than everything in the old covenant, believers should offer sacrifices which are pleasing to God: praise and worship. The God of peace will sustain them in their faith. 

Jesus is the founder and perfecter of the believer's faith. Believers should not grow weary in battling sin. To purify them, God disciplines his children. Those who hold fast to faith have a kingdom that cannot be shaken.
