1 John 3:18 in context
- 16By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
- 17But whoever has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, then closes his heart of compassion against him, how does God’s love remain in him?
- 18My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
- 19And by this we know that we are of the truth, and persuade our hearts before him,
- 20because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
