1 John 4:5-7

New King James Version

^5 (A)They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and ^(B)the world hears them. ⁶ We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. ^(C)By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

Knowing God Through Love^(D)

^7 (E)Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who ^(F)loves is born of God and knows God.
