Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.

And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works,

Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

Do not speak evil of one another, brethren. He who speaks evil of a brother and judges his brother, speaks evil of the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.

And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God.

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

If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.
