Anyone who keeps on hating his brother is a murderer; and you know that no murderer can have eternal life remaining in him. We know what love is from the fact that He laid down His life for us; and so we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. read more.

Dearly beloved, let us practice loving one another, because love originates with God, and everyone who practices loving is a child of God and knows God by experience. Whoever does not love has never come to know God by experience, because God is love. This is the way God's love for us has been shown, namely, God has sent His only Son into the world that we through Him might have life. read more.
