1 John 4:11-16
111Beloved, if God so loved us, 2we also ought to love one another. 123No one has seen God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His 4love is perfected in us. 135By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit. 14We have seen and 6testify that the Father has 7sent the Son to be the Savior of the world.
158Whoever confesses that 9Jesus is the Son of God, God 10abides in him, and he in God. 1611We have come to know and have believed the love which God has 1213for us. 14God is love, and the one who 15abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.
