When you sincerely love God with all your heart, soul and mind, you will also have a genuine love for others, and especially for those who are in “the household of faith.” (Galatians 6:10) This is further confirmation that his Spirit dwells in you, and that “his love” is being perfected in you.

God is the originator and the personification of love, so you really cannot love him “with all of your heart” if you still harbor hatred in your heart.

“We love because he first loved us. If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother.” (1 John 4:19-21 NIV)
