1 John 4:16-19

NAS

NIV

16 We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.
16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.
17 By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world.
17 This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus.
18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.
18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
19 We love, because He first loved us.
19 We love because he first loved us.
