- "From this truth believed,
from this blessing enjoyed, the love of our brethren takes its rise,
which may very justly be admitted as an evidence that our faith is
no delusion."
- From the
Commentary on the Whole Bible
(Jamieson, Fausset and Brown, 1871).
- "When the venerable John could
no longer walk to the meetings of the Church but was borne thither
by his disciples, he always uttered the same address to the Church;
he reminded them of that one commandment which he had received from
Christ Himself, as comprising all the rest, and forming the
distinction of the new covenant, "My little children, love one
another." When the brethren present, wearied of hearing the
same thing so often, asked why he always repeated the same thing, he
replied, "Because it is the commandment of the Lord, and if
this one thing be attained, it is enough" [JEROME]."
- From
The People's
New Testament, B.W. Johnson, 1891
- "The love of God in Christ is
meant. His love is shown on the cross. Christ is love. If we love as
he loved, we must be willing even to die for each other."
