16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only-begotten Son, that whosoever believes on him may not perish, but have life eternal.
3 among whom *we* also all once had our conversation in the lusts of our flesh, doing what the flesh and the thoughts willed to do, and were children, by nature, of wrath, even as the rest:
4 but God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love wherewith he loved us,
5 (we too being dead in offences,) has quickened us with the Christ, (ye are saved by grace,)
8 but before all things having fervent love among yourselves, because love covers a multitude of sins;
16 Hereby we have known love, because *he* has laid down his life for us; and *we* ought for the brethren to lay down {our} lives.
7 For scarcely for {the} just {man} will one die, for perhaps for {the} good {man} some one might also dare to die;
8 but God commends *his* love to us, in that, we being still sinners, Christ has died for us.
8 but God commends *his* love to us, in that, we being still sinners, Christ has died for us.
27 But to you that hear I say, Love your enemies; do good to those that hate you;
28 bless those that curse you; pray for those who use you despitefully.
23 for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption which {is} in Christ Jesus;
4 Love has long patience, is kind; love is not emulous {of others}; love is not insolent and rash, is not puffed up,
5 does not behave in an unseemly manner, does not seek what is its own, is not quickly provoked, does not impute evil,
19 *We* love because *he* has first loved us.
17 The friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
3 Jehovah hath appeared from afar unto me, {saying,} Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love; therefore with loving-kindness have I drawn thee.
4 But when the kindness and love to man of our Saviour God appeared,
5 not on the principle of works which {have been done} in righteousness which *we* had done, but according to his own mercy he saved us through {the} washing of regeneration and renewal of {the} Holy Spirit,
6 which he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
6 does not rejoice at iniquity but rejoices with the truth,
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son a propitiation for our sins.
9 Herein as to us has been manifested the love of God, that God has sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? tribulation or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?
26 Give ye thanks unto the *God of the heavens; for his loving-kindness {endureth} for ever.
5 Jehovah, thy loving-kindness is in the heavens, and thy faithfulness {reacheth} unto the clouds.
43 Ye have heard that it has been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour and hate thine enemy.
44 But *I* say unto you, Love your enemies, {bless those who curse you,} do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who {insult you and} persecute you,
45 that ye may be {the} sons of your Father who is in {the} heavens; for he makes his sun rise on evil and good, and sends rain on just and unjust.
46 For if ye should love those who love you, what reward have ye? Do not also the tax-gatherers the same?
47 And if ye should salute your brethren only, what do ye extraordinary? Do not also the Gentiles the same?
48 Be *ye* therefore perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect.
