7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9 In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. 10 In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12 No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us. —1 John 4:7 - 12, ESV
It’s the power of God’s love
toward us.
8 But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. —Romans 5:8, ESV
38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. —Romans 8:38 - 39, ESV
It’s the power of God’s love
within us.
1 See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. —1 John 3:1, ESV
34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. 35 By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” —John 13:34 - 35, ESV
- Love your
- Love your
43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. —Matthew 5:43 - 45, ESV
12 No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us. —1 John 4:12, ESV
God’s love is perfected not through our recollection if it but through our application of it.
