Whoever says he is in the light and hates his brother is still in darkness.

1 John 3:13-17

Do not be surprised, brothers, that the world hates you. We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. Whoever does not love abides in death. Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?

If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.

While you preach against stealing, do you steal?
