ANTHEM: Let us Love One Another by Arnold B. Sherman
Beloved, let us love one another, for love comes from God, and all who know him and call upon his name are children of our Lord. Beloved, this is what love is: not that we love God, but that he loves us and sent his only Son to free us from our sin. How can we not know our God? How can we not love our God? He sent his only Son to die for all our sins. Is there greater love than this? Beloved, if this is how God loves, then we should love all men, and live in perfect harmony with all, and God will live in us. Let us love one another. [based on I John 4:7-11]
