For the first time in my life I saw the truth as it is set into song by so many poets, proclaimed as the final wisdom by so many thinkers. The truth - that Love is the ultimate and highest goal to which man can aspire. Then I grasped the meaning of the greatest secret that human poetry and human thought and belief have to impart: The salvation of man is through love and in love.

The more I think it over, the more I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people.

In all religions, we make a choice about what we emphasize, and I choose to come down on the side of a loving God.

Jesus] invoked a different kind of power: love, not coercion.

Jesus declared that we should have one distinguishing mark: not political correctness or moral superiority, but love.

In view of the mess we have made of crystal-clear commands--the unity of the church, love as a mark of Christians, racial and economic justice, the importance of personal purity, the dangers of wealth--I tremble to think what we would do if some of the ambiguous doctrines were less ambiguous.

Politics draws lines between people; in contrast, Jesus' love cuts across those lines and dispenses grace.

Love one another Forgive one another Pray for one another Bear one another's burdens Be devoted to one another Regard one another as more important than yourself Do not speak against one another Do not judge one another Show tolerance for one another Be kind to one another Speak truth to one another Build up one another Comfort one another Care for one another Stimulate one another to love and good deeds

Love is the bottom line.

When I ask, "Tell me the first word that comes to your mind when I say Christian," not one time has someone suggested the word love. Yet without question that is the proper biblical answer.

We in the body of Christ are called to show love when God seems not to.
