My 14 year old daughter was asked by some standard-keeping friends what it was that makes our church different from their's, since we are both one God and Acts 2:38. She responded in an amazingly wise manner: "We believe our love for one another tells the world who we are, not the way we dress." |
I think Jesus said something like what your daughter said in John 13:34-35
