What does the Bible say about faith and love?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that true faith is evidenced by love, particularly for one another and even for enemies.

In 1 Thessalonians 3:6, Paul commends the Thessalonian believers for their faith and charity. He emphasizes that faith is intrinsically linked to love, as seen in the writings of John: 'Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God' (1 John 4:7). This indicates that true faith produces love not only among believers but even towards those who oppose them. Faith manifests itself through charity, which is an essential characteristic of those who are born of God.
