"Be holy"

“You shall not bear hatred for your brother in your heart.
Though you may have to reprove him,
do not incur sin because of him.

The fruits of charity are joy, peace, and mercy; charity demands beneficence and fraternal correction; it is benevolence; it fosters reciprocity and remains disinterested and generous; it is friendship and communion: Love is itself the fulfillment of all our works. There is the goal; that is why we run: we run toward it, and once we reach it, in it we shall find rest.
-- CCC 1829
