We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn’t love his brother remains in death.

ExplanationCommentary
Verse 14–15. We know that we have passed from death to life; that is from the death of sin to the life of grace: we know it by a moral certainty, when we experience in our heart a love of our neighbour.—He that loveth not God and his neighbour, abideth in death. He that hateth his brother with a mortal hatred, or to a considerable degree, is a murderer. Witham.
