7 Dear friends, let us continually love one another, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born from God and knows God.8 The person who does not love does not know God, because God is love.

7 Dear friends, let us continually love one another, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born from God and knows God.

8 The person who does not love does not know God, because God is love.

16 We have come to know and believe in the love that God has for us. God is love, and the person who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.17 This is how love has been perfected among us: we will have confidence on the day of judgment because, while we are in this world, we are just like him.18 There is no fear where love exists. Rather, perfect love banishes fear, for fear involves punishment, and the person who lives in fear has not been perfected in love.

16 We have come to know and believe in the love that God has for us. God is love, and the person who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

19 We love because he first loved us.

19 We love because he first loved us.20 Whoever says, "I love God," but hates his brother is a liar. The one who does not love the brother whom he has seen cannot love a God whom he has not seen.

11 Dear friends, if this is the way God loved us, we must also love one another.

12 No one has ever seen God. If we love one another, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in us.

21 And this is the commandment that we have from him: the person who loves God must also love his brother.

16 This is how we have come to know love: Christ gave his life for us. We, too, ought to give our lives for our brothers.17 Whoever has earthly possessions and notices a brother in need and yet withholds his compassion from him, how can the love of God remain in him?18 Little children, we must stop loving in word and in tongue, but instead love in action and in truth.

14 We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love one another. The person who does not love remains in death.

11 This is the message that you have heard from the beginning: We should love one another.

1 See what kind of love the Father has given us in letting us be called God's children! Yet that is what we are. For this reason the world does not recognize us, because it did not recognize him either.

3 For this is the love of God: that we keep his commandments; and his commandments are not difficult,

8 But God demonstrates his love for us by the fact that Christ died for us while we were still sinners.

16 "For this is how God loved the world: He gave his unique Son so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but have eternal life.

13 No one showsgreater love than when he lays down his life for his friends.

9 Just as the Father has loved me, so I have loved you. So abide in my love.10 If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.

12 "This is my commandment: that you love one another as I have loved you.

15 "If you love me, keepmy commandments.

21 The person who has my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I, too, will love him and reveal myself to him."22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, "Lord, how is it that you are going to reveal yourself to us and not to the world?"23 Jesus answered him,"If anyone loves me, he will keep my word. Then my Father will love him, and we will go to him and make our home within him.24 The one who does not love me does not keep my words. The word that you hear is not mine, but comes from the Father who sent me.

34 I am giving you a new commandment to love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another.35 This is how everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another."

37 Jesus said to him,"‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’38 This is the greatest and most importantcommandment.39 The second is like it: ‘You must love your neighbor as yourself.’

37 Jesus said to him,"‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’38 This is the greatest and most importantcommandment.39 The second is like it: ‘You must love your neighbor as yourself.’40 All the Law and the Prophets depend on these two commandments."

40 The king will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, in that you did it for one of the least important of these my brothers, you did it for me.’

12 Therefore, whatever you want people to do for you, do the same for them, for this is the Law and the Prophets."

44 But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you,

30 and you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’31 The second is this: ‘You must love your neighbor as yourself.’No other commandment is greater than these."

4 Love is always patient, Love is always kind, Love is never envious Or vaunted up with pride. Nor is she conceited,5 And never is she rude, Never does she think of self Or ever get annoyed. She never is resentful,

4 Love is always patient, Love is always kind, Love is never envious Or vaunted up with pride. Nor is she conceited,5 And never is she rude, Never does she think of self Or ever get annoyed. She never is resentful,6 Is never glad with sin, But always glad to side with truth, Whene'er the truth should win.7 She bears up under everything, Believes the best in all, There is no limit to her hope, And never will she fall.

13 Right now three things remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.

2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can understand all secrets and every form of knowledge, and if I have absolute faith so as to move mountains but have no love, I am nothing.

9 But as it is written, "No eye has seen, no ear has heard,and no mind has imagined the things that God has preparedfor those who love him."

14 Everything you do should be done in love.

14 Everything you do should be done in love.

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 anything above, nor anything below, nor anything else in all creation can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

8 Do not owe anyone anything—except to love one another. For the one who loves another has fulfilled the law.

14 Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which ties everything together in unity.

13 Put up with one another and forgive each other if anyone has a complaint against another. Just as the Lord has forgiven you, you also should forgive.14 Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which ties everything together in unity.

16 I pray that he would give you, according to his glorious riches, strength in your inner being and power through his Spirit,17 and that Christ would make his home in your hearts through faith. Then, having been rooted and grounded in love,

2 with all humility and gentleness, along with patience, accepting one another in love.

25 Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church and gave himself for it,26 so that he might make it holy by cleansing it, washing it with water and the word,

9 And this is my prayer, that your love will keep on growing more and more in full knowledge and perfect insight,10 so that you may be able to determine what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ,11 having been filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ to the glory and praise of God.

14 For the whole law is summarized in a single statement: "You must love your neighbor as yourself."

5 May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the endurance of Christ.

8 Above all, continue to love each other deeply, because love covers a multitude of sins.

35 Rather, love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them, expecting nothing in return. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, for he is kind to ungrateful and evil people.
