amor de Deus

God’s Love for the World

16 For in this way God loved the world, so that he gave his one and only Son, in order that everyone who believes in him will not perish, but will have eternal life.

8 but God demonstrates his own love for us, in that while* we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

38 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

3 From afar Yahweh appeared to me, saying,

"I have loved you with an everlasting love.

Therefore* I have drawn you with loyal love.

Praise to God for His Creation and Deliverance

1 Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good,

for his loyal love endures forever.

8 Yahweh is compassionate and gracious,

slow to anger* and abundant in loyal love.

15 But you, O Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God,

slow to anger* and abundant in loyal love and faithfulness.

3 Because your loyal love is better than life,

my lips will praise you.

God’s Love Revealed

7 Dear friends, let us love one another, because love is from God, and everyone who loves has been fathered by God and knows God. 8 The one who does not love does not know God, because God is love.

9 By this the love of God is revealed in us: that God sent his one and only Son into the world in order that we may live through him. 10 In this is love: not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation* for our sins.

11 Dear friends, if God loved us in this way, we also ought to love one another.

16 And we have come to know and have believed the love that God has in us. God is love, and the one who resides in love resides in God, and God resides in him.

19 We love, because he first loved us.

1 See what sort of love the Father has given to us: that we should be called children of God, and we are! Because of this the world does not know us: because it did not know him.

7 Dear friends, I am not writing a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the message which you have heard. 8 Again, I am writing a new commandment to you, which is true in him and in you, because* the darkness is passing away and the true light already is shining.

3 For this is the love of God: that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome,

4 Love is patient, love is kind, love is not jealous, it does not boast, it does not become conceited,

17 Yahweh your God is in your midst;

a mighty warrior who saves.

He shall rejoice over you with joy;

he renews* you in his love;

he will exult over you with singing.

17 I love those who love me,*

and those who seek me diligently shall find me.

4 Because you are precious in my eyes,

you are honored, and I myself love you,

and I give people in place of you,

and nations in place of your life.

9 We have pondered your loyal love, O God,

in the midst of your temple.

10 Prolong your loyal love to those who know you,

and your righteousness to the upright of heart.

20 and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me, and that life I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love with which he loved us, 5 and we being dead in trespasses, he made us alive together with Christ (by grace you are saved),

5 Now may the Lord direct your hearts toward the love of God and toward the patient endurance of Christ.
