1 John 4:8-10
J.B. Phillips New Testament
Let us love: God has shown us love at its highest
7-8 To you whom I love I say, let us go on loving one another, for love comes from God. Every man who truly loves is God’s son and has some knowledge of him. But the man who does not love cannot know him at all, for God is love.
