I'm thinking of building a big sign and putting it outside of my house.

This town has an issue with not minding their own business, but I don't want it to unintentionally offend my neighbor across the street because I actually like them and they're not a problem.

Any friendly/peaceful/reminder suggestions?

If you are surrounded by nosey neighbours you can be sure that any sign with biblical verses on it are going to offend people.
May I ask why you wany to put up a biblical poster in your garden?

A reminder for the church members. They don't seem to know.

Is James 1:26-27 too much?

James 1:26-27 ESV
If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless. Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.

I find it kind of ironic/strange, that in this present time, an anabaptist Christian would be suffering harassment and from a lot of members of Lutheran churches.

Because of the part about them burning anabaptists in history. I'm not bothered by Lutheran churches. I just think it's interesting.

Joshua 1:8
Do not let this book of the Law depart from your mouth, meditate on it day and night so that YOU MAY FIGURE OUT HOW YOU CAN DO EVERYTHING WRITTEN in it, then you will prosper and be successful.

That ought to do it....especially if you are known for knowing and reciting scripture...

I always like a sign that says....>>"God is Love" and on the Sign is The Cross.

Interestingly, I told my mother if someone starts causing problems and asking why I don't hang out with them to refer to Psalm 1.

It is true. I'm being judged based on how much people see myself and the kids out in the community and now someone had the nerve to ask about my work hours. (If they show up, especially if they have been drinking, I am walking away and having someone else handle it.)

Meanwhile, these people fall into a pit of destruction with their lifestyles and then try to peer through mine, like why are you not doing what I think you should be doing?

I want to say, "Who cares?! Why are you so worried about my life? My family is happy and my house is clean."

As the Finnish proverb goes, "Sweep your own front door."
