1 John 4:8-11

English Standard Version

^8 (A)Anyone who does not love does not know God, because ^(B)God is love. ⁹ In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that ^(C)God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. ¹⁰ In this is love, ^(D)not that we have loved God ^(E)but that he loved us and sent his Son to be ^(F)the propitiation for our sins. ¹¹ Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
