Tolerance vs. Love
Tolerance says, "You must approve of what I do." Love responds, "I must do something harder: I will love you even when your behavior offends me."Tolerance says, "You must agree with me." Love responds, "I must do something harder:
I will tell you the truth,
because I am convinced 'the truth will set you free.'"
Tolerance says, "You must allow me to have my way."
Love responds, "I must do something harder:
I will plead with you to follow the right way,
because I believe you are worth the risk."
I will plead with you to follow the right way,
because I believe you are worth the risk."
Tolerance seeks to be inoffensive;
Love takes risks.
Tolerance glorifies division;
Love seeks unity.
Tolerance costs nothing;
Love costs everything.
Love takes risks.
Tolerance glorifies division;
Love seeks unity.
Tolerance costs nothing;
Love costs everything.
