1 John 3:18 in context
- 16Hereby know we love, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
- 17But whoso hath the world’s goods, and beholdeth his brother in need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how doth the love of God abide in him?
- 18My little children, let us not love in word, neither with the tongue; but in deed and truth.
- 19Hereby shall we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our heart before him:
- 20because if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
