1 John 4:9-11

Revised Geneva Translation

⁹ In this was that love of God revealed amongst us: because God sent His only begotten Son into this world, so that we might live through Him.

¹⁰ In this is that love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be a reconciliation for our sins.

¹¹ Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
