Love is the heart of Christian faith

You believe that God is one.  You do well.  The demons also believe, and they tremble, (James 2:19)

They alone know how to believe in God who love God, who are Christians not only in name, but also in action and [way of] life, because without love faith is empty.  With love, it is the faith of a Christian—without love, the faith of a demon.

He who sits at the right hand of the Father, goes without shelter at the inn, that He may for us prepare many mansions in the house of His Heavenly Father … He was born, not in the house of His parents, but at the inn, by the wayside, because through the Mystery of the Incarnation, He has become the Way, by which He guides us to our home.  Venerable Bede
