1 John 4:7

1John4:1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.1John4:2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God;1John4:3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world.1John4:4 You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.1John4:5 They are from the world; therefore they speak as from the world, and the world listens to them.1John4:6 We are from God; he who knows God listens to us; he who is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. 1John4:8 The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love.1John4:9 By this the love of God was manifested in us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him.1John4:10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.1John4:11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.1John4:12 No one has seen God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us.1John4:13 By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.1John4:14 We have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world.1John4:15 Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.1John4:16 We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.1John4:17 By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world.1John4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.1John4:19 We love, because He first loved us.1John4:20 If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.1John4:21 And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should love his brother also.

Harold Jackson posted Whats Love Got To Do With It?. (Mar 18, 2010)
“Whats love got to do with it, you may ask; Tina Turner has her view of it, she believes that love is only a secondhand emotion. Well that can be true only if you just have a humanistic point of view. Love is more that what we can ever understand it to be. Love God in the form of man sacrificing Himself for me and for you, and it is our unconditional great deed just out of the bowls of other soul to anyone that have a need that it is impossible for them to fulfill. Whats love got to do with it, It has every thing to do with it. ”

Harold Jackson posted TRUE LOVE. (Mar 17, 2010)
“True Love is the love of God and your fellow Man, Your love can not be seen outside of your true love for one another. The word says, "As much as you did it to one of these you did it to me". But what you do is not as important as how and why you are doing it! Your motives must be pure.”

“Papa, I love you, fear you, want to obey and please you. I need your help to trust you. I'm walking with you, and I need you to hold me in your arms.

Kambria Sturgeon posted Love is many ways.... (Feb 25, 2010)
“Love is such a little word for all the impact it can have in this world. There are so many types of love. I believe as long as you keep love close to your heart and pure with God that it will constantly keep you close to God.”

Corri Baker posted Amen!. (Feb 25, 2010)
“I am learning to love in the way that God commanded us to love. I have his instructions on my wall in my office and everyday have to be reminded that everyone deserves love. This is the hardest concept to grasp but I know the rewards are great for those who follow Him. God is love and only can we understand love when we have God and understand God. Seems like the bible verses are exactly what I need to hear each day. What a blessing!”

Corri Baker posted Learning to love. (Feb 18, 2010)
“I needed to hear this today. My goal right now is to learn how to love as Christ does. The biblical definition of love is so hard to accomplish just as we are, sinners. But God is opening my eyes to His way to love and I've seen some great blessings so far. ”
