The Jackson Five – Give Love on Christmas Day
“Dear friends,
we should love each other, because love comes from God. The person who loves
has become God’s child and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God,
because God is love. This is how God showed his love to us: He sent his only
Son into the world to give us life through him. True love is God’s love for us,
not our love for God. God sent his Son to die in our place to take away our
sins.
That is how
much God loved us, dear friends! So we also must love each other. No one has
ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us. If we love each
other, God’s love has reached its goal. It is made perfect in us.
We know that we
live in God and God lives in us. We know this because God gave us his Spirit.
We have seen that the Father sent his son to be the Savior of the world. That
is what we teach. If someone says, ‘I believe that Jesus is the Son of God,’
then God lives in him. And he lives in God. And so we know the love God has for
us, and we trust that love.”
1 John 4:7-16a
