John 13:34-35 – New International Version

³⁴ “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.

³⁵ By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

A new commandment I give unto you, That you love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye love one to another.

I have decided to stick with love, for I know that love is ultimately the only answer to mankind’s problems. ~Martin Luther King Jr.
