约翰一书3:16-19
16主为我们舍命，我们从此就知道何为爱。我们也当为弟兄舍命。17凡有世上财物的，看见弟兄穷乏，却塞住怜恤的心，爱神的心怎能存在他里面呢？18小子们哪，我们相爱，不要只在言语和舌头上。总要在行为和诚实上。19从此就知道我们是属真理的，并且我们的心在神面前可以安稳。
16We know what real love is because Jesus gave up his life for us. So we also ought to give up our lives for our brothers and sisters. 17If someone has enough money to live well and sees a brother or sister#3:17 Greek sees his brother. in need but shows no compassion—how can God’s love be in that person? 18Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions. 19Our actions will show that we belong to the truth, so we will be confident when we stand before God.
