web - 1John:4:7-21

web@1John:4:7 @Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God, and knows God.

web@1John:4:8 @He who doesn't love doesn't know God, for God is love.

web@1John:4:9 @By this God's love was revealed in us, that God has sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.

web@1John:4:10 @In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice {"atoning sacrifice" is from the Greek "hilasmos," an appeasing, propitiating, or the means of appeasement or propitiation--the sacrifice that turns away God's wrath because of our sin.} for our sins.

web@1John:4:11 @Beloved, if God loved us in this way, we also ought to love one another.

web@1John:4:12 @No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love has been perfected in us.

web@1John:4:13 @By this we know that we remain in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.

web@1John:4:14 @We have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as the Savior of the world.

web@1John:4:15 @Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him, and he in God.

web@1John:4:16 @We know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and he who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him.

web@1John:4:17 @In this love has been made perfect among us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, even so are we in this world.

web@1John:4:18 @There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.

web@1John:4:19 @We love him, because he first loved us.

web@1John:4:20 @If a man says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn't love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

web@1John:4:21 @This commandment we have from him, that he who loves God should also love his brother.
