This morning we continue our study verse by verse through 1 John. This letter has been teaching us more and more about the love of God and why it is so amazing. We can understand how the perfect love of God in Christ is actually being perfected in the life of the believer as it is passed on in its purest form. The only way we, as followers of Christ, are able to love anyone at all is because of the overwhelming love of God, our Savior. He has given us this great blessing of being able to share the love of Christ with others. Scripture text for today is 1 John 4:16b-21.
