1 John 4:19-21
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
19 We love[a] because he first loved us. 20 Those who say, ‘I love God’, and hate their brothers or sisters,[b] are liars; for those who do not love a brother or sister[c] whom they have seen, cannot love God whom they have not seen. 21 The commandment we have from him is this: those who love God must love their brothers and sisters[d] also.
