1. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”

2 “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

3 “If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing. Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful.”

4 “But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Thanks be to God for his inexpressible gift!”
