The Message Bible MSG

10 This is the kind of love we are talking about - not that we once upon a time loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to clear away our sins and the damage they've done to our relationship with God.

11 My dear, dear friends, if God loved us like this, we certainly ought to love each other.

10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
