God Is Love
7 (A)Beloved, let us (B)love one another, for love is from God; and (C)everyone who loves has been [a](D)born of God and (E)knows God. 8 The one who does not love does not know God, because (F)God is love. 9 By this the love of God was manifested [b](G)in us, that (H)God has sent His [c]only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him.
