1 John 4:9

Then He said, “Take now your son, your only one, whom you love, Isaac, and go forth to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I will tell you.”

No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him.

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.

“He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

In this is love, not that we have loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

And we have come to know and have believed the love which God has in us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

And the witness is this, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.

These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.
