““Written So You Might Written So You Might Know True Love”Know True Love”
1 John 2:5 (ESV) 5 But whoever keeps his word, in him truly the love of God is perfected. By this we may know that we are in him:
1 John 2:15 (ESV) 15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
1 John 3:1 (NIV) How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!
