THE LOVE OF GOD

<< 1 John 2 >>
GOD'S WORD

1 My dear children, I'm writing this to you so that you will
not sin. Yet, if anyone does sin, we have Jesus Christ, who
has God's full approval. He speaks on our behalf when we
come into the presence of the Father. 2 He is the payment
for our sins, and not only for our sins, but also for the sins
of the whole world. 3 We are sure that we know Christ if we
obey his commandments. 4 The person who says, "I know
him," but doesn't obey his commandments is a liar. The
truth isn't in that person. 5 But whoever obeys what Christ
says is the kind of person in whom God's love is perfected.
That's how we know we are in Christ. 6 Those who say
that they live in him must live the same way he lived.

THE LOVE OF GOD

We have a cover, a banner
THE SHEPHERD ON HIGH
Who spoke truth, and lived truth
And taught us how to live and die.
We have an Advocate, a Judge
THE SAVIOR IN HEAVEN
Who made law, and obeyed law
And encouraged us to win
We have a light, an ambassador
THE KING OF HEARTS
Who was love, and is love
And promised never to depart
We have a master, a living hope
THE LORD IS HIS NAME
Who caused life, and causes life
To follow Him His way
