Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good; love one another with mutual affection/لِتَكُنْ مَحَبَّتُكُم بِلا رِيَاء: تَجَنَّبُوا الشَّرّ، ولازِمُوا الخَيْر. أَحِبُّوا بَعْضُكُم بَعْضًا مَحَبَّةً أَخَوِيَّة، وبَادِرُوا بَعْضُكُم بَعْضًا بِالإِكْرَام
Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good; love one another with mutual affection
Letter to the Romans 12/09-15: “Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good; love one another with mutual affection; outdo one another in showing honour. Do not lag in zeal, be ardent in spirit, serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering, persevere in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints; extend hospitality to strangers. Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep”.
His mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation
Luke 01/46-55: “Mary said, ‘My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour, for he has looked with favour on the lowliness of his servant. Surely, from now on all generations will call me blessed; for the Mighty One has done great things for me, and holy is his name. His mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation. He has shown strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts. He has brought down the powerful from their thrones, and lifted up the lowly; he has filled the hungry with good things, and sent the rich away empty. He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy, according to the promise he made to our ancestors, to Abraham and to his descendants for ever.”
