1John:4:7-21
dourh@1John:4:7 @ Dearly beloved, let us love one another, for charity is of God. And every one that loveth, is born of God, and knoweth God.
dourh@1John:4:8 @ He that loveth not, knoweth not God: for God is charity.
dourh@1John:4:9 @ By this hath the charity of God appeared towards us, because God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we may live by him.
dourh@1John:4:10 @ In this is charity: not as though we had loved God, but because he hath first loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins.
dourh@1John:4:11 @ My dearest, if God hath so loved us; we also ought to love one another.
dourh@1John:4:12 @ No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his charity is perfected in us.
dourh@1John:4:13 @ In this we know that we abide in him, and he in us: because he hath given us of his spirit.
dourh@1John:4:14 @ And we have seen, and do testify, that the Father hath sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world.
dourh@1John:4:15 @ Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God.
dourh@1John:4:16 @ And we have known, and have believed the charity, which God hath to us. God is charity: and he that abideth in charity, abideth in God, and God in him.
dourh@1John:4:17 @ In this is the charity of God perfected with us, that we may have confidence in the day of judgment: because as he is, we also are in this world.
dourh@1John:4:18 @ Fear is not in charity: but perfect charity casteth out fear, because fear hath pain. And he that feareth, is not perfected in charity.
dourh@1John:4:19 @ Let us therefore love God, because God first hath loved us.
dourh@1John:4:20 @ If any man say, I love God, and hateth his brother; he is a liar. For he that loveth not his brother, whom he seeth, how can he love God, whom he seeth not?
dourh@1John:4:21 @ And this commandment we have from God, that he, who loveth God, love also his brother.
