John 3:11-18
Let
Us Love In Deed and Truth
1Jn 3:11 For this is the message that ye heard
from the beginning, that we should love one another.
1Jn 3:12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his
brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his
brother’s righteous.
1Jn 3:13 Marvel not, my brethren, if the world
hate you.
1Jn 3:14 We know that we have passed from death
unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.
1Jn 3:15 Whosoever hateth his
brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding
in him.
1Jn 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us:
and we ought to lay down our lives
for the brethren.
1Jn 3:17 But whoso hath this world’s good, and
seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love
of God in him?
1Jn 3:18 My little children, let us not love in
word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.
