1 John 4:7
Brotherly Love.This section is about the importance of real Christian love. John encourages believers to love one another, showing that true love comes from God. He explains that loving others is proof that we know God, because God is the source of love. John also reminds us that God showed his love by sending Jesus to save us, and that we should love others in the same way. When we love each other, it is a sign that God's Spirit is living in us.v. 7: John urges, Beloved, let us love one another (1 John 4:7 a). Love comes from God, and everyone who truly loves is born of God and knows God. The Spirit of God is a Spirit of love, and when we have new life from God, we show it by loving others (Galatians 5:22 b).
