Amor fraternal
O amor fraternal é marca dos discípulos de Cristo. Nisto conhecerão que sois meus discípulos: se tiverdes amor uns aos outros.

In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son tobe the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
Seeing God Through Love
No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us.
Obedience by Faith
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.
