Pín

Little children, let’s not love with words or speech but with action and truth.

This is how we know love: Jesus laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.

See what kind of love the Father has given to us in that we should be called God’s children, and that is what we are! Because the world didn’t recognize him, it doesn’t recognize us.

The person who practices sin belongs to the devil, because the devil has been sinning since the beginning. God’s Son appeared for this purpose: to destroy the works of the devil.

Those born from God don’t practice sin because God’s DNA remains in them. They can’t sin because they are born from God.

But if someone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but refuses to help—how can the love of God dwell in a person like that?

Those who keep his commandments dwell in God and God dwells in them. This is how we know that he dwells in us, because of the Spirit he has given us.

This is how God’s children and the devil’s children are apparent: everyone who doesn’t practice righteousness is not from God, including the person who doesn’t love a brother or sister.

This is the message that you heard from the beginning: love each other.

Don’t be surprised, brothers and sisters, if the world hates you.
