1John:3:11-24
acv@1John:3:11 @ Because this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love each other.
acv@1John:3:12 @ Not as Cain. He was of the wicked, and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his works were wrong, and his brother's right.
acv@1John:3:13 @ Marvel not, my brothers, if the world hates you.
acv@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who is not loving the brother abides in death.
acv@1John:3:15 @ Every man hating his brother is a man-killer. And ye know that no man-killer has eternal life abiding in him.
acv@1John:3:16 @ By this we know love, because that man laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
acv@1John:3:17 @ But whoever has the world's living, and sees his brother having need, and closes his bowels from him, how does the love of God abide in him?
acv@1John:3:18 @ My Little children, we should not love in word, nor with the tongue, but in deed and in truth.
acv@1John:3:19 @ And by this we know that we are of the truth, and will assure our hearts before him.
acv@1John:3:20 @ Because if our heart should condemn us, that God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
acv@1John:3:21 @ Beloved, if our heart should not condemn us, we have confidence toward God,
acv@1John:3:22 @ and whatever we may ask we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do things pleasing in his sight.
acv@1John:3:23 @ And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love each other, just as he gave command.
acv@1John:3:24 @ And he who keeps his commandments abides in him, and he in him. And by this we know that he abides in us, from the Spirit that he gave us.
