1 John 3 16-1 John 3 18
We know love by this, that He laid down His life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers and sisters.But whoever has worldly goods and sees his brother or sister in need, and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God remain in him?Little children, let’s not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and truth.

Rescue those who are being taken away to death, And those who are staggering to the slaughter, Oh hold them back!If you say,“ See, we did not know this,” Does He who weighs the hearts not consider it?

Job 6:14-21
“ For the despairing man there should be kindness from his friend; So that he does not abandon the fear of the Almighty.My brothers have acted deceitfully like a wadi, Like the torrents of wadis which drain away,Which are darkened because of ice, And into which the snow melts.When they dry up, they vanish; When it is hot, they disappear from their place.The paths of their course wind along, They go up into wasteland and perish.The caravans of Tema looked, The travelers of Sheba hoped for them.They were put to shame, for they had trusted, They came there and were humiliated.Indeed, you have now become such, You see terrors and are afraid.

James 2:13-16
For judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy; mercy triumphs over judgment.What use is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone says he has faith, but he has no works? Can that faith save him?If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food,and one of you says to them,“ Go in peace, be warmed and be filled,” yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that?
