“Whoever loves his brother lives in the light, and there is nothing in him to make him stumble” 1 John 2:10 (NIV). The implications are clear, love will keep you stable and hate will make you stumble in the darkness (1 John 2:9-11). Individuals, churches and communities need to be stabilized by love. The reason Satan inspires hate in a nation or a community is so that he can get it off balance and thrive on the chaos. Love is the only answer to pushing back the disorder of hate and the kingdom of darkness.
