1 John 4:20-5:1
World English Bible
20 If a man says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn’t love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? 21 This commandment we have from him, that he who loves God should also love his brother.
5 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God. Whoever loves the Father also loves the child who is born of him.
1 John 4:20-5:1
American Standard Version
20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, [a]cannot love God whom he hath not seen. 21 And this commandment have we from him, that he who loveth God love his brother also.
5 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is begotten of God: and whosoever loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.
