Read it in context1 John 4:15–21

15 When anyone confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in that person, and that person remains in God. 16 We ourselves have come to know the love God has for us, and we have believed it. God is love. Anyone who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in that person. 17 In this, love has been brought to completion among us, so that we may have boldness on the day of judgment, because just as he is, so are we too in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; rather, complete love throws fear out, because fear involves punishment. Whoever is afraid has not been brought to completion in love. 19 We love because he first loved us. 20 If someone says, “I love God,” and yet hates their brother or sister, that person is a liar. For anyone who fails to love a brother or sister they have seen is unable to love God, whom they have not seen. 21 The command we have received from him is this: the one who loves God is to love their brother or sister too.
