Love One Another - Part 2

"Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est."

Where true charity and love abide, God is dwelling there.

Jesus told the disciples, "I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another." (John 13:34-35)

But not those in authority, right? Not the police or the president or the politicians. At least not those who don't vote like I do, right? Well, certainly not those who are rude or disrespectful to those in authority – rude to police, politicians, teachers and the like.

"I give you a new commandment, that you love one another."

Even those who are arrogant or rude? Boastful? Or just downright irritating?

"I give you a new commandment, that you love one another."

Even those who doubt, or deny you? Those who do not even believe you exist?

"I give you a new commandment, that you love one another."
