Settings

5 1They are from the world; therefore * they speak as from the world, and the world listens to them.
6 2We are from God; 3he who knows God listens to us; 4he who is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know 5the spirit of truth and 6the spirit of error.

God Is Love

7 7Beloved, let us 8love one another, for love is from God; and 9everyone who loves is 10born of God and 11knows God.
8 The one who does not love does not know God, for 12God is love.
9 By this the love of God was manifested 13in us, that 14God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him.
10 In this is love, 15not that we loved God, but that 16He loved us and sent His Son to be 17the propitiation for our sins.
11 18Beloved, if God so loved us, 19we also ought to love one another.
12 20No one has seen God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His 21love is perfected in us.
13 22By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.
14 We have seen and 23testify that the Father has 24sent the Son to be the Savior of the world.
15 25Whoever * confesses that 26Jesus is the Son of God, God 27abides in him, and he in God.
