L O V E versus h a t r e d:
“God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in
him” (1 John 4:16).
“Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins” (Proverbs
10:12).
“Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in
him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. In this the children of God
are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness
is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother. For this is the message
that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. 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. Marvel not,
my brethren, if the world hate you. We know that we have passed from death unto
life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in
death. Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer
hath eternal life abiding in him” (1 John 3:9-15).
