“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? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.” (1 John 4:20-21, NKJV)

If we love God we will love one another, but if we hate one another we cannot honestly claim to love God.

“The command we have from Christ is blunt: Loving God includes loving people. You’ve got to love both.” (The Message)
