1John:4:8-11
noyes@1John:4:8 @ he that loveth not hath not known God; for God is love.
noyes@1John:4:9 @ In this was manifested the love of God in regard to us, that God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we may live through him.
noyes@1John:4:10 @ Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins.
noyes@1John:4:11 @ Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
