”A person blinded by darkness does not know the way to live. They make others including family and fellow believers into enemies while claiming that they are living in the light of justifying their actions. In so doing, they cause others to stumble and fall. Real living is to love one another including our enemies. In this way of living, darkness disappears and the True Light shines.” 1John 2:7-11
When I turn these verses around I can see how and the way to live because I am walking in the truth, shown to me by the True Light of Jesus. I love my family and fellow believers and make no one into an enemy. I have genuine love for all. This is real living!
So, “Let us continue to love one another, for love is of God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God. For God is love.” 1John 4:7,8
