1 John 4:7 CPDV

⁵  They are of the world. Therefore, they speak about the world, and the world listens to them.

⁶  We are of God. Whoever knows God, listens to us. Whoever is not of God, does not listen to us. In this way, we know the Spirit of truth from the spirit of error.

⁷  Most beloved, let us love one another. For love is of God. And everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.

⁸  Whoever does not love, does not know God. For God is love.

⁹  The love of God was made apparent to us in this way: that God sent his only-begotten Son into the world, so that we might live through him.
