… do I have to be nice to the weirdo who always sits in the front row and sings off-key at church?

No, you have to be more than nice – you have to love him.

1 John 3:10 says: “This is how we know who the children of God are … : Anyone who does not do what is right is not a child of God; nor is anyone who does not love his brother.”

Relax – even old Christians find this hard, you’ll get better at it. It helps to remember that you are weird enough yourself – there are probably some people who love you even though they think you’re weird too.
