What does the Bible say about love for the brethren?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible emphasizes that love for the brethren is a sign of having passed from death to life (1 John 3:14).

The Apostle John states that we know we have passed from death unto life because we love the brethren (1 John 3:14). This love is more than mere affection; it is a spiritual love rooted in Christ. Genuine love for fellow believers indicates that the Holy Spirit dwells within us, transcending natural affection and self-interest. The absence of such love signifies a lack of true spiritual life, emphasizing the importance of this divine affection in the Christian faith.
