This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen.
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
1John 4:19 “We love because he first loved us.”
1John4:16-17 “And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus.”
The word ‘love’, or some form of it, occurs no fewer than twenty-seven times in these fifteen verses and a total of forty-six times throughout the whole book. No need to ask what is at the heart of this letter.
1. Fear of rejection is a punishment of its own and traps you, Through Christ you are accepted
2. The nature of God is revealed to us through the loving sacrifice of Jesus on the cross.
3. Our love for one another reflects God’s love nature to the world. In response, Christians should love one another to further reveal God’s love to the world.
