1 John 4:19

---

← 1 John 4:18	1 John 4:19 (KJV)	1 John 4:20 →
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.	We love him, because he first loved us.	If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
