"Melalui Roh Kudus kita mengasihi mereka yang dipersatukan dengan kita di dalam Kristus. Semakin banyak kita menerima Roh Kristus, semakin sempurna kita dapat mengasihi mereka: dan semakin kita mengasihi mereka semakin kita menerima Roh. Namun, jelas bahwa karena kita mengasihi mereka oleh Roh yang diberikan kepada kita oleh Yesus, maka Yesus sendirilah yang mengasihi mereka di dalam kita."

Versi Bahasa Inggris

It is by the Holy Spirit that we love those who are united to us in Christ. The more plentifully we have received of the Spirit of Christ, the more perfectly we are able to love them: and the more we love them the more we receive the Spirit. It is clear, however, that since we love them by the Spirit Who is given to us by Jesus, it is Jesus Himself Who loves them in us.
