Brotherly Love

Brotherly Love.......
Sharing Our Father.. 

Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them." Ephesians 4:2: “Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love." 1 Peter 4:8: “Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins." John 15:12: “My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you."

 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brothers to dwell together in unity! 
"This I command you, that you love one another.  

"Treat others the same way you want them to treat you. "If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. "If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.

Joseph continued in love .....

Then Joseph hurried out, for his compassion grew warm for his brother, and he sought a place to weep. And he entered his chamber and wept there. Then he washed his face and came out. And controlling himself he said, “Serve the food.” They served him by himself, and them by themselves, and the Egyptians who ate with him by themselves, because the Egyptians could not eat with the Hebrews, for that is an abomination to the Egyptians. And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright and the youngest according to his youth. And the men looked at one another in amazement. Portions were taken to them from Joseph's table, but Benjamin's portion was five times as much as any of theirs. And they drank and were merry with him. 








The other side

Unfriendly world
filled with enemies

 Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them.

 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.”

 For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does.

 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.
