1 John 4:9-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
9 God’s love was revealed among us in this way:[a] God sent(A) His One and Only Son(B) into the world so that we might live(C) through Him. 10 Love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that He loved us(D) and sent His Son to be the[b] propitiation(E) for our sins. 11 Dear friends, if God loved us in this way, we also must love one another.(F) 12 No one has ever seen God.[c](G) If we love one another, God remains in[d] us and His love is perfected in us.
