1 John 4:9 in Context — 1 John 4
7 Carísimos, amémonos unos á otros; porque el amor es de Dios. Cualquiera que ama, es nacido de Dios, y conoce á Dios.
8 El que no ama, no conoce á Dios; porque Dios es amor.
9 En esto se mostró el amor de Dios para con nosotros, en que Dios envió á su Hijo unigénito al mundo, para que vivamos por él.
10 En esto consiste el amor: no que nosotros hayamos amado á Dios, sino que él nos amó á nosotros, y ha enviado á su Hijo [en] propiciación por nuestros pecados.
11 Amados, si Dios así nos ha amado, debemos también nosotros amarnos unos á otros.
