“ If I speak in the tongues of men
and of angels, but have not love, I
am only a resounding gong or a
clanging cymbal. If I have the gift
of prophecy and can fathom all
mysteries and all knowledge, and if
I have a faith that can move
mountains, but have not love, I am
nothing. If I give all I possess to
the poor and surrender my body to
the flames, but have not love, I
gain nothing.” (1

“ We ought always to thank God for
you, brothers, and rightly so,
because your faith is growing more
and more, and the love every one of
you has for each other is
increasing.” (2

“ "You have heard that it was said,
'Love your neighbor and hate your
enemy.' But I tell you: Love your
enemies and pray for those who
persecute you, that you may be sons
of your Father in heaven. He causes
his sun to rise on the evil and the
good, and sends rain on the
righteous and the unrighteous.” (Matthew
5:43-45) (Read
