1 John 4:17-19

Listen to 1 John 4:17-19
17 This way, love has the run of the house, becomes at home and mature in us, so that we're free of worry on Judgment Day - our standing in the world is identical with Christ's.
18 There is no room in love for fear. Well-formed love banishes fear. Since fear is crippling, a fearful life - fear of death, fear of judgment - is one not yet fully formed in love.
19 We, though, are going to love - love and be loved. First we were loved, now we love. He loved us first.
