Love and charity are the essential ingredients of all theology
and worship.
If we took this as a premise, our minds would then be
enlightened by vast numbers of passages in the Word that
otherwise lie hidden in the murk of false assumptions. In
fact, heresy would then vanish. All the churches would
join into one, no matter how great the differences in doctrinal
teachings derived from this premise or pointing to
it, and no matter how great the differences in ritual.
If this were how matters now stood, we would all be
ruled by the Lord as a single person. We would be like
members and organs of a single body. Then, no matter
what our theology or what our outward form of worship,
we would each say, “You are my kin; I see that you worship
the Lord and that you are a good person.”
—Secrets of Heaven 2385:4, 5
