#DoYouReallyLoveGod

#Jesus #Christian #God'sWord

The previous chapter closed with the scripture that tells us that our obedience is unto a fervent, unfeigned love for others out of a pure heart.

To love one another is to have Life (eternal). To hate one another is to abide in death.
1 John 3:14
[14]We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.

Remember the Life is the light of men?

To love one another is to walk in light and be full of light. To hate any man is to walk in darkness.

1 John 2:10-11
[10]He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
[11]But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

The light that is in his body has been put out and made dark.

Jesus put special.emphasis on loving one...
