Was

This is how we have come to know love: He laid down His life for us. We should also lay down our lives for our brothers.

“For God loved the world in this way: He gave His One and Only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.

But God proves His own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us!

He did not even spare His own Son
but offered Him up for us all;
how will He not also with Him grant us everything?

God sent

Love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

The Spirit of the Lord is on Me,
because He has anointed Me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent Me

to proclaim freedom

to the captives

and recovery of sight to the blind,
to set free the oppressed,

so that all people will honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Anyone who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

Jesus replied, “This is the work of God—that you believe in the One He has sent.”

The One who sent Me is with Me. He has not left Me alone, because I always do what pleases Him.”

Only

I will declare the Lord’s decree:
He said to Me, “You are My Son;
today I have become Your Father.

“He still had one to send, a beloved son. Finally he sent him to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’

The Word became flesh

and took up residence among us.
We observed His glory,
the glory as the One and Only Son from the Father,
full of grace and truth.

Anyone who believes in Him is not condemned, but anyone who does not believe is already condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the One and Only Son of God.

For to which of the angels did He ever say, You are My Son; today I have become Your Father,

or again, I will be His Father, and He will be My Son?

Remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt and the Lord your God redeemed you; that is why I am giving you this command today.

All the Law and the Prophets depend on these two commands.”

For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost.”

No one has greater love than this, that someone would lay down his life for his friends.

Let brotherly love continue.
