1Jo 3:15 | MHM | STEP | v. 15 : On the other hand, if someone does not love others, it means they are still under spiritual death. If you hate your brother or sister, it is as if you are a murderer, because hatred leads to destruction and suffering. John says, Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him (1 John 3:15 ). If a person’s heart is full of hate, there is no real life from God inside them (Romans 8:6 ).
