1 John 4:10-12 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atonement on behalf of our sins.

MLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁰ In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atonement on behalf of our sins. ¹¹ Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. ¹² No one has seen God at anytime; if we love one another, God is abiding in us and his love is completed in us.
