To love one another as He loves us, is the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. For it is love that kills our outward man’s ways; buries him in baptism; and causes our inward-man (named Jesus) to resurrect on the inside of us!

About This Quote

This quote is from the book entitled Great Commission, by H. Richard Niebuhr. In this quote, Niebuhr states that the true Gospel is “to love one another as He loves us.” This means that a person must love everyone not just those who are close to you. And, for this reason, we must not hold grudges or have any ill-will against others.
