Now concerning brotherly love, I have no need to write unto you: for ye yourselves are divinely taught to love one another.
In brotherly affection be tenderly attached to each other; in honour preferring one another:
Beloved, let us love one another; because love is from God, and every one who loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not, never knew God; for God is love. By this was the love of God manifested to us, that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might have life by him.read more.
Herein is love, not that we have loved God, but that he hath loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiatory sacrifice for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his love is perfected in us. By this we know that we abide in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his own Spirit. And we have seen and bear testimony, that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God. And we have known and believed the love which God hath towards us. God is love; and he that abideth in love, abideth in God, and God in him. By this is his love towards us perfected, that we might have confidence at the day of judgment; because as he is, so are we in this world. Fear is not in this love; but the perfect love casteth out fear: for fear hath anguish. He that is afraid is not made perfect in love. We love him, because he first loved us. If any person say, I love God, yet hateth his brother, he is a liar; for he who loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love the God whom he hath not seen? So this commandment have we from him, that he who loveth God love also his brother.
Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is comprised in this word, even in this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Love doeth no ill to a neighbour; the fulfilment therefore of the law is love.
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; even as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
and with intelligence moderation; and with moderation patience; and with patience piety; and with piety fraternal affection; and with fraternal affection love.

that the test of your faith (much more precious than that of gold, which is of a perishing nature, though proved by fire) may be found unto praise and honour and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ:
Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, long-suffering;
Love is long-suffering, is kind; love envieth not; love is no vain boaster, is not inflated [with pride],
but be ye kind one to another, full of sensibility, forgiving mutually, even as God in Christ hath forgiven you.
