Context Readings

God's Love Revealed

16 well, we do know, we have believed, the love God has for us. God is love, and he who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him. 17 Love is complete with us when we have absolute confidence about the day of judgment, since in this world we are living as He lives. 18 Love has no dread in it; no, love in its fulness drives all dread away, for dread has to do with punishment ??anyone who has dread, has not reached the fulness of love.
