1 John 3:14–18

14 We know that we have apassed out of death into life, bbecause we love the brothers. The one who does not love abides in death.

15 Everyone who ahates his brother is a murderer, and you know that bno murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

16 By this we have known love, that aHe laid down His life for us; and bwe ought to lay down our lives for the cbrothers.

17 But awhoever has the world’s goods, and sees his brother in need and bcloses his 1heart 2against him, chow does the love of God abide in him?

18 aLittle children, let us not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and btruth.
