  8. 1 John 3:11-12(NIV84)3:11 This is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another. 3:12 Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil and his brother’s were righteous.

  9. 1 John 3:13-15(NIV84)3:13 Do not be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you. 3:14 We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love our brothers. Anyone who does not love remains in death. 3:15 Anyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life in him.

  10. 1 John 3:16-18(NIV84)3:16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down His life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. 3:17 If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? 3:18 Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.

  11. 1 John 3:11-12(NIV84)3:11 This is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another. 3:12 Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil and his brother’s were righteous.

  12. John 1:1-5 & 14(NIV84)1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made. 4In Him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. 14The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

  13. 1 John 1:1-4(NIV84)1:1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. 1:2 The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. 1:3 We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son, Jesus Christ. 1:4 We write this to make our (and your) joy complete.

  14. John 13:34-35(NIV84)34 “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.”

  15. 1 John 3:11-12(NIV84)3:11 This is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another. 3:12 Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil and his brother’s were righteous.

  16. 1 John 3:11-12(NIV84)3:11 This is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another. 3:12 Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil and his brother’s were righteous.

  17. Hebrews 11:4(NIV84)4By faith Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain did. By faith he was commended as a righteous man, when God spoke well of his offerings. And by faith he still speaks, even though he is dead.

  18. Genesis 4:2-7(NIV84)2 …. Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil. 3 In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord. 4 But Abel brought fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The Lord looked with favor on Abel and his offering, 5 but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast. 6 Then the Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast? 7If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it.”

  19. Genesis 4:7(NIV84)7 If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? Cain did not act out of ignorance Cain’s heart had already turned against God

  20. Hebrews 11:4(NIV84)4By faith Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain did. By faith he was commended as a righteous man, when God spoke well of his offerings. And by faith he still speaks, even though he is dead.

  21. 1 John 3:12(NIV84)3:12 Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil and his brother’s were righteous.

  22. 1 John 3:4-7(NIV84)3:4 Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness. 3:5 But you know that He appeared so that He might take away our sins. And in Him is no sin. 3:6 No one who lives in Him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen Him or known Him. 3:7 Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. He who does what is right is righteous, just as He is righteous.

  23. 1 John 3:8-10(NIV84)3:8 He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work. 3:9 No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God. 3:10 This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not a child of God; nor is anyone who does not love his brother.

  24. 1 John 3:5-6(NIV84)3:5 But you know that He appeared so that He might take away our sins. And in Him is no sin. 3:6 No one who lives in Him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen Him or known Him. When we come to Christ in repentance and surrender, He gives us a new nature.

  25. 1 John 3:13-15(NIV84)3:13Do not be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you. 3:14 We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love our brothers. Anyone who does not love remains in death. 3:15 Anyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life in him.

  26. The presence or absence of love in our hearts is testimony to whether or not we have passed from death to life.

  27. 1 John 3:6(NIV84)3:6 No one who lives in Him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen Him or known Him.

  28. 1 John 3:16-18(NIV84)3:16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down His life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. 3:17 If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? 3:18 Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth. “has no pity on him,” means to slam the door in the face of another’s need.

  29. Our love always needs to be done selflesslyTo love him or her with our actions and in truth
