Our love for our brethren indicates whether we love God. We cannot become aware of God by sight, but by loving our brethren. We are to follow the example of Jesus, who loved us before we loved Him. Following Christ's sacrifice, we ought to give our lives as an unblemished meal offering, symbolizing our love for our brethren. God is the source of love. The reciprocation of this love for our brethren is the way we see and approach God.
