Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.
But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more;
And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
