The First
Letter of Johannes |
|
4-8 |
Whoever does not love does not know God, for God is
Love. |
|
4-9 |
And God showed his love for us by sending his only
Son into the world so that we might have life through him. |
|
4-10 |
This is what love is: it is not that we have loved
God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the means by which our
sins are forgiven. |
|
4-11 |
Dear friends, if this is how God loved us, then we
should love one another. |
|
4-16 |
God is love, and those
who live in love live in union with God and God lives in union with them. |
|
4-18 |
There is no fear in love;
perfect love drives out all fear. So then, love has not been made perfect
in anyone who is afraid, because fear has to do with punishment. |
