HOSPITALITY
Mt 25:34 Then shall the King say to them on his right hand, Come, you
blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the
foundation of the world:
35 For I was an hungered, and you gave me meat: I was thirsty, and you gave
me drink: I was a stranger, and you took me in:
41 Then shall he say also to them on the left hand, Depart from me, you
cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42 For I was an hungered, and you gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and you
gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and you took me not in: naked, and you clothed me not:
sick, and in prison, and you visited me not.
Lu 14:12 Then said he also to him that bade him, When you make a
dinner or a supper, call not your friends, nor your brothers, neither your
kinsmen, nor your rich neighbors; lest they also bid you again, and a
recompense be made you.
13 But when you make a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:
14 And you shall be blessed; for they cannot recompense you: for you shall
be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.
Rom 12:13 Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to
hospitality.
1 Tim 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife,
vigilant, sober, of good behavior, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
5:99 Let not a widow be taken into the number under three score years old,
having been the wife of one man.
10 Well reported of for good works; if she have brought up children, if she
have lodged strangers, if she have washed the saints’ feet, if she have
relieved the afflicted, if she have diligently followed every good work.
Tit 1:7 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not
self-willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to
filthy lucre;
8 But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy,
temperate;
Heb 13:2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some
have entertained angels unawares.
1 Pe 4:9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
3 Joh 1:5 Beloved, you do faithfully whatever you do to the brothers,
and to strangers;
6 Which have borne witness of your charity before the church: whom if you
bring forward on their journey after a godly sort, you shall do well:
7 Because that for his name’s sake they went forth, taking nothing of the
Gentiles.
8 We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellow helpers to the
truth.
9 I wrote to the church: but Diotrephes, who loves to have the preeminence
among them, receives us not.
10 Why, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he does, prating against
us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither does he himself
receive the brothers, and forbids them that would, and casts them out of the
church.
Pr 3:29 Devise not evil against your neighbor, seeing he dwells
securely by you.
25:17 Withdraw your foot from your neighbor’s house; lest he be weary of you,
and so hate you.
Isa 58:6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands
of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free,
and that you break every yoke?
7 Is it not to deal your bread to the hungry, and that you bring the poor
that are cast out to your house? when you see the naked, that you cover him;
and that you hide not yourself from your own flesh?
