How do we know love for others is a mark of salvation?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that love for others confirms our status as children of God.

According to 1 John 3:14, we know that we have passed from death unto life because we love the brethren. This love is a clear mark of new birth, indicating that those who are truly born of God will demonstrate mutual affection and care for one another. The absence of such love suggests a serious concern regarding one's spiritual state. Thus, love is not optional but a vital expression of our salvation, testifying to the transformative work of Christ within us.
