Big Idea: John urges believers to follow Jesus' example of sacrificial love, contrasting it with Cain's selfish act of murder. Hatred aligns with Cain, while love aligns with Jesus and brings life. Loving others demonstrates faith, blesses recipients, and allows believers to experience God's presence. A practical way to show this love is by sharing material possessions. Ultimately, love leads to life, while hatred leads to death.
