Points off for use of the KJV version. :) Just goes to show, even a version famed for its beautiful English can have very stilted language sometimes.

Yes, I did also think there could be a more specific verse about loyalty for RD rather than the one they use in the meme, which is more about the theological virtue of charity in general.

Haha! Wow! I created this meme my freshman year of college and submitted it to the Christian Memes Facebook page. I never expected it to become so popular on the internet. My girlfriend was on Pintrest and randomly stumbled on the link to this. I just felt compelled to say something. :)
