1 John 4:20-1 John 5:5 - Keeping God's Commands
20 If a man says 'I love God,' and yet hates his Brother, he is a liar; for the man who does not love his Brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. 21 Indeed, we have this Command from God-- 'He who loves God must also love his Brother.'
1 Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ has received the new Life from God; and every one who loves him who gave that Life loves him who has received it. 2 By this we know that we love God's Children--when we love God and carry out his commands. 3 For to love God is to lay his commands to heart; and his commands are not burdensome, 4 because all that has received the new Life from God conquers the world. And this is the power that has conquered the world--our faith! 5 Who is he that conquers the world but the man who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
