What is it about the word “Love” that speaks to our souls? It is something that we KNOW pleases our Lord Jesus because it is according to His Word. In fact, Brother Branham told us,
Satan can copy any kind of a gift, any kind of a manifestation, but he can't love. God is love. that's right. See? Satan can't love.

Here’s a testimony that will put a smile on your face.
On Monday of last week, we posted an article titled, “One Big Family.” It was a simple article about unity among believers. Again, we received messages from all areas of the world, with very loving and encouraging comments. The theme was, without a doubt, LOVE.
We also changed the quote at the bottom of the branham.org homepage to the following:
This quote is randomly chosen, similar to the Quote Of The Day.
On Wednesday, Brother Joseph sent the following text and email to the notification list:
“By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.” (John 13:35) Do we measure up? God bless you, friends. JMB
This had nothing to do with the article posted the previous day.
On Thursday, this was the Quote Of The Day:
Oh, I--I love Him. In my heart I love Him, if I know my heart. I believe you do too. So together we are His children. We love one another. Now, I cannot love Him without loving you. And if I say that I love Him and don't love you, the Bible said I'm a liar. See? And if I... If you want to--if you wanted to love me or love my family... The choice was, which do I want you to do, love me or love my family; you love my family. I'd rather you'd love Billy Paul than love me. If it come to that kind of a showdown, I'd rather you'd do it. I want you to listen to me, 'cause Billy's not a minister. But I want you to listen to me, what I tell you; but when--if you want to love somebody, really love them, you say, "I want to either love you or Billy," you love Billy. See? God feels the same way about us. And we cannot... Then I know you can't love Billy without loving me, 'cause he's part of me. See? So I can't love God without loving you, because you're part of God. And we love one another.
