Love is a characteristic of God’s people, because it is an intrinsic quality of God Himself (1 John 4:8). John has just been using Cain as an example of someone who did not love his brother, Abel (Genesis 4:1-12; 1 John 3:11-13). Murdering Abel was shockingly wicked, and its deadly echo has reverberated down through the centuries. That dreadful act of hatred was an epic example of being against God's family and therefore against God.
