For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

But we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until [the] end,

And let us consider one another for the stirring up of love and of good works,

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; just as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another."

These things I command you, that you may love one another.

And when the day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

Now all who believed were together, and they had all things in common,

So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were sharing food with joy and simplicity of heart,

Now the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and one soul; neither did anyone say that any of the things belonging to him was his own, but they had all things in common.

[Let] love [be] without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.

Be warmly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor preferring one another;

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but faith working through love.

For you, brothers were called to freedom; only do not use freedom for an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

being diligent to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

And walk in love, just as Christ also loved us and gave Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a fragrant aroma.

Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and acts of compassion,

doing nothing according to selfish ambition or conceit, but with humility, regarding one another as being better than yourselves.

Now concerning brotherly love you have no need [for me] to write to you, for you yourselves are taught by God to love one another.

For indeed you do so toward all the brothers in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brothers, that you increase more and more,

We are obligated to give thanks to God always for you, brothers, [and] rightfully so, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all increases towards one another,

Since you have purified your souls by obedience to the truth through the Spirit in sincere love for the brothers, love one another fervently from a pure heart,

Honor all [people]. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

Finally, all [of you] be like-minded, sympathetic, loving the brothers, compassionate, friendly,

And above all things have fervent love for one another, because "love will cover a multitude of sins."

and with godliness brotherly love, and with brotherly love, love.

He who says that he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now.

He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him.

By this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Everyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.

not as Cain who was of the evil one and slew his brother. And for what reason did he slay him? Because his works were evil and the [works] of his brother were righteous.

We know that we have passed over from death to life, because we love the brothers. He who does not love his brother abides in death.

By this we have come to know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives in behalf of our brothers.

My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.

Beloved, let us love one another, because love is of God; and everyone that loves has been born of God and knows God.

By this the love of God is manifested in us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, in order that we might live through Him.

Beloved, if in this way God loved us, indeed we ought to love one another.

Everyone that believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone that loves Him that begot also loves him that is begotten of Him.

And now I ask you, lady, not as writing a new commandment to you, but one which we have had from the beginning: that we love one another.

This is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, that as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.

Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love.
