1 John 4:20-5:1 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

²⁰If anyone says, “I love God,” but hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.

²¹And we have this commandment from Him: Whoever loves God must love his brother as well.

¹Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves those born of Him.
