1 John 3 16-1 John 3 20
We know what love is because Jesus Christ gave his life for us. So we should give our lives for our brothers and sisters.Suppose someone sees a brother or sister in need and is able to help them. And suppose that person doesn’t take pity on these needy people. Then how can the love of God be in that person?Dear children, don’t just talk about love. Put your love into action. Then it will truly be love.Here’s how we know that we hold to the truth. And here’s how we put our hearts at rest, knowing that God is watching.If our hearts judge us, we know that God is greater than our hearts. And he knows everything.
