Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God, and knows God.

He who doesn't love doesn't know God, for God is love.

By this was God's love revealed in us, that God has sent his only born Son into the world that we might live through him.

In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.

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

No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love has been perfected in us.

Whoever will confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him, and he in God.

We know and have believed the love which God has in us. God is love, and he who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him.

If a man says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn't love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

This commandment have we from him, that he who loves God should also love his brother.

Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God. Whoever loves the father also loves the child who is born of him.

By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments.

For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.

For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: your faith.

Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is God's testimony which he has testified concerning his Son.

He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in him. He who doesn't believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.

The testimony is this, that God gave to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for those who sin not to death. There is a sin leading to death. I don't say that concerning this he should make a request.
