1 John 3:14-17

English Standard Version

¹⁴ We know that ^(A)we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. Whoever does not love abides in death. ^15 (B)Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that ^(C)no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

¹⁶ By this we know love, that ^(D)he laid down his life for us, and ^(E)we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. ¹⁷ But ^(F)if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet ^(G)closes his heart against him, ^(H)how does God's love abide in him?
