A notable, a nd fundamen,,
aspect of this unity is IN ~,
teaching concerning Love j' ;.s

in connection with the lesson :
Paul's famous eulogy Of Love !,

with the lesson is the story NJ
Peter in John q, the Master,
question to the disciple, sad
dened by his denial of his Lord
Lowest thou me?' and Petpr's
commission to manifest his love
by ministering to others.
1t is significant, and an evi.
dence of the great Transforming
power of the Gospel, that it is
John who is so insistent upon
Love as the supreme thing. tha
very nature of God himself and
the test of the Christian Life
1t was this very John, who had
reused the other disciples to in,

of himself and his brother
James to have the foremos

that time they believed Jesu
was going to set up on earth

And now this man Of fire ha
become a man of gentlenes

that God is Love, but he know
that to love God means to low

only a misguided, or a weak

repeats this demand of Low
again and again, and in III
spirit of love he exhorts his fel

old in love and service, and h
has won the privilege of father

Love and light - this is tn
theme of John. A loveless lIf
