Share the gospel at all times, and if necessary, use words

...love one another, as the Lord says: "This is My commandment, that you love one another, as I have loved you." And let them show their love by the works they do for each other, according as the Apostle says: "let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth."

Wherever you go, preach the gospel, and if necessary, use words.
