1 John 4:8-10
8The one who does not love does not know God, because 1God is love.
9By this the love of God was revealed 23in us, that 4God has sent His only Son into the world so that we may live through Him.
10In this is love, 5not that we loved God, but that 6He loved us and sent His Son to be 7the 8propitiation for our sins.
