“The world in which we live would benefit greatly if men and women everywhere would exercise the pure love of Christ, which is kind, meek, and lowly. It is without envy or pride. It is selfless because it seeks nothing in return. It does not countenance evil or ill will, nor rejoice in iniquity; it has no place for bigotry, hatred, or violence.

It encourages diverse people to live together in Christian love regardless of religious belief, race, nationality, financial standing, education, or culture.” PeopleIfsMenWorldKindDoeChristianTogetherCultureEvilBeliefChristReligiousRaceViolencePrideReturnExercisePureBenefitsMen And WomenStandingHatredAbuseCharityFinancialIllRefuseEnvyBigotryRejoiceSelflessDiverseRidiculeNationalityReligious BeliefCountenanceMeekPure LoveVulgarityChristian LoveIniquityIll WillOstracism Author:Howard W.
