1 John 3:13

God Is Love, So Love One Another

¹² We must not be like Cain who was a child of the evil one, and butchered his brother. And why did he butcher him? Because his own actions were wicked and his brother's upright. ¹³ You must not be surprised, brothers, if the world hates you! ¹⁴ We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love our brothers. Anyone who does not love is still in death.
