1 John 3:16-18

16 By this we know love, that ¹he laid down his life for us, and ²we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.

17 But ³if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet ⁴closes his heart against him, ⁵how does God's love abide in him?

18 Little children, let us not ⁶love in word or talk but in deed and ⁷in truth.
