1 John 4:9-11
J.B. Phillips New Testament
9-10 To us, the greatest demonstration of God’s love for us has been his sending his only Son into the world to give us life through him. We see real love, not in that fact that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to make personal atonement for our sins.
11 If God loved us as much as that, surely we, in our turn, should love each other!
