LOVE OF OUR NEIGHBOUR IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT THE LOVE OF GOD

If any man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar. For he hath loveth not his brother, whom he seeth, how can he love God, whom he seeth not? And this commandment we have from God: that he who loveth God love also his brother. 1 John 4:20
He that loveth not abideth in death. Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer. 1 John 3:14
Whosoever is not just is not of God, nor he that loveth not his brother. 1 John 3:10
Friend, how comest thou in hither, not having on a wedding garment? But he was silent. Then the king said to the waiters: Bind his hands and feet, and cast him into the exterior darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Matt. 22:12
At last came also the other virgins, saying: Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answering, said: Amen I say to you, I know you not. Mat. 25:11
