Meditating
on the Scriptures Together
1
John 4:20-21
[20] If anyone says,
“I love God,”
and hates his
brother,
he is a liar;
for he who does not
love his brother
whom he has seen
cannot love God
whom he has not
seen.
[21] And this
commandment
we have from him:
whoever loves God
must also love his
brother.
Matthew
5:43-48
[43]
“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor
and hate your enemy.’ [44] But I say to you, Love your enemies and
pray for those who persecute you, [45] so that you may be sons of
your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil
and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. [46]
For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not
even the tax collectors do the same? [47] And if you greet only your
brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the
Gentiles do the same? [48] You therefore must be perfect, as your
heavenly Father is perfect.
