Thought of the Day !!
If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.
1 John 4:20
This is a strong statement about love. Love is something that is hard to define, but much easier to show. So when we hate a brother or sister, we show the lack of it. And the ultimate love that God expects from us has no hate in it. This is proven by Jesus when he teaches us to love even our enemies. So love all, and hate none.
In the love of Christ,
greg

It's a very strong statement. I'm glad that it's in the Bible, lest we be inclined to think that hate is ever an option.
You are exactly right john.
