LINE UPON LINE OF LOVE
Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.
By this we shall know that we are of the truth
and reassure our heart before him;
for whenever our heart condemns us,
God is greater than our heart,
and he knows everything.
Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us,
we have confidence before God;
and whatever we ask we receive from him,
because we keep his commandments
and do what pleases him.
And this is his commandment,
that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another,
just as he has commanded us.
Whoever keeps his commandments abides in God, and God in him.
And by this we know that he abides in us,
by the Spirit whom he has given us.
(1 John 3:18-24)
“This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.” Jesus
