a Humble observation

 14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them?  James 2:14 (NIV)

20 Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen 1 John 4:20 (NIV)

39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’  Matthew 22:39(NIV)

 

17 Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward them for what they have done. Proverbs 19:17 (NIV)

 

31 Whoever oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors God. Proverbs 14:31 (NIV)

 

There is a theme here; to gain God’s love, you must first love others and be kind to others.   Just wanted to put that out there.
