Pleasant Words from the Gospel

























                   ... If we love one another, [God's] His love is made complete in us.
                   (1 John, 4:12)

                   And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His
                   love into our hearts... (Romans, 5:5)

                                                                      
                   And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.  God is love.
                   Whoever lives [for God's sake] in love lives in God... (1 John, 4:16)

                   love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, Whom he has
                            
                   not seen.  And He has given us this command: Whoever loves God
                   must also love his brother. (1 John, 4:19-21)


                   ... Jesus replied... "If you want to enter life, obey the command-
