1 JOHN 3:14 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.”
We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. Whoever does not love abides in death — the transition (metabainō) from death to life is verified by love (agapē) of the brothers. Love becomes the existential marker of resurrection life. Lovelessness indicates remaining in death (thanatos).
