BITTERNESS

→ Hebrews 12:14-15                    Defilement

Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;

→ James 3:14                            Strife

But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.

→ Romans 3:13-14                    Deceit

Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

→ Acts 8:23                               Sin

For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.

→ Ephesians 4:31-32                  Kindness

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
