"our love of others with a godly love"
1 John 4:7–8 says (in effect): "Beloved, let us love one another; for love is of God... everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, for God is love." John therefore gives loving others (a godly, self-giving love) as the verifying standard.
