New Commandment


John 13:34-45 (NLT)
34So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. 35Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples."

It is not our talent or our works or even our evangelism that will ultimately win the world. God will use each of these things, but what the lost world sees is our love for each other, and it is something they cannot experience absent a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.
Our relationship with each other is the criterion the world uses to judge whether or not our message is truthful – Christian community is the final apologetic.”
Frances Schaeffer – “The Mark of a Christian”
