¹³ No one has greater love [no one has shown stronger affection] than to lay down (give up) his own life for his friends.

¹⁰ In this is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation (the atoning sacrifice) for our sins.

¹¹ Beloved, if God loved us so [very much], we also ought to love one another.
