1 John 4:11

---

← 1 John 4:10	1 John 4:11 (KJV)	1 John 4:12 →
Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son [to be] the propitiation for our sins.	Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.	No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
