Love and Truth

"Love and truth must be maintained in perfect balance. Truth is never to be abandoned in the name of love. But love is not to be deposed in the name of truth… Truth without love has no decency; it’s just brutality. On the other hand, love without truth has no character; it’s just hypocrisy."
- John MacArthur

    I think I personally define grace as love is being defined above. Going with the above definition, though...

    Truth without love is empty - love without truth is blind.
