Love - The Mark of the Christian

In our elder discipleship program, we started with the subject of love by reading and discussing Charity and Its Fruits by Jonathan Edwards. God forbid that we would have loveless churches. If we do, they may not be true churches at all. We will be having a Free Online Webinar to discuss this book again on January 19 and invite any man that is interested to join us.

Here is another resource: In 1970, Francis Schaeffer wrote a book entitled The Mark of the Christian in which he rightly identifies love as the chief identifying mark of a true believer. 

"My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: Where I am going, you cannot come. A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." (John 13:33-35)
