"Beloved, let us love one another. For love is from God, and anyone who loves has been born of God and loves God. 8 The one who does not love, does not know God. Because God is love. 9.By this the love of God was revealed in us, that God has sent his only Son into the world that we may live through Him. 10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but the he loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12 No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God remains in us and His love is perfected in us."
