It is Not Our Love for God

If we say that we have not sinned, we are fooling ourselves, and the truth isn't in our hearts.

Christ is the sacrifice that takes away our sins and the sins of all the world's people.

God is love, and anyone who doesn't love others has never known him.  God showed his love for us when he sent his only Son into the world to give us life.

Real love isn't our love for God, but his love for us.  God sent his Son to be the sacrifice by which our sins are forgiven.

Dear friends, since God loved us this much, we must love each other..
