1 John 3:10-18

JuliaSmith(i) 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the accuser: every one not doing justice is not of God, and he not loving his brother. 11 For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. 12 Not as Cain was of the evil one, and slew his brother. And for what slew he him? Because his works were evil, and those of his brother just. 13 Be not amazed, my brethren, if the world hate you. 14 We know that we have passed from death to life, for we love the brethren. He not loving the brother remains in death. 15 Every one hating his brother is a manslayer: and ye know that no man-slayer has eternal life remaining in him. 16 In this have we known love, for he set his soul for us: and we ought to set the souls for the brethren. 17 And whoever has the life of the world, and sees his brother having need, and should shut up his bowels from him, how remains the love of God in him? 18 My little children, we should not love in word, neither in tongue; but in work and truth.
