A rare sight

Loving, as Jesus loves, is rare. That is, loving sensitively and sacrificially, is still the greatest evidence of the gospel and the most magnetic attraction to God’s truth.

Notes to Growing Christians David Jackman

When all our evangelistic presentations have been given, it is still the sheer goodness of a Christ-like life and character which exercises the most dynamic testimony to the grace of the Lord Jesus. Not surprisingly, what is true at the individual level is even more so at the level of our life together, whether as local churches or wider Christian fellowships. Heart unity among believers is paramount for effective witness, and yet it is found comparatively rarely and destroyed so very easily.
