1 John 3:12-15

12Don’t be like Cain. He was a child of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did Cain murder his brother? Because the things Cain did were evil and the things his brother did had God’s approval.

13Brothers and sisters, don’t be surprised if the world hates you.

14We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love other believers. The person who doesn’t grow in love remains in death.

15Everyone who hates another believer is a murderer, and you know that a murderer doesn’t have eternal life.
