Mavhesi emuBhaibheri Ane Mukurumbira kubva kuna 1 John 3

Pakurirana nevamwe

Little children, let us not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and truth.

We know love by this, that He laid down His life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil.

No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

But whoever has the world’s goods, and sees his brother in need and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?

The one who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. We know by this that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.

By this the children of God and the children of the devil are obvious: anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor the one who does not love his brother.

For this is the message which you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another

Do not be surprised, brethren, if the world hates you.
