Jerome tells us that when the aged apostle John became so weak that he could no longer preach, he used to be carried into the congregation at Ephesus and content himself with a word of exhortation. 'Little children,' he would say, 'love one another.' And when his hearers grew tired of this message and ask him why he so frequently repeated it, he responded, 'Because it is the Lord's command, and if this is all you do, it is enough'
