Exegetical Idea : John calls those born of God to aspire to LOVE -- something motivated and defined by God’s nature and expressed most fully in the sending of His only unique Son to bear His own wrath induced by our sin. Homiletic Idea : Those loved of God, love like God. Let us seek a love that is beyond us.

ὅτι τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ τὸν μονογενῆ ἀπέσταλκεν ὁ θεὸς εἰς τὸν κόσμον

in order that we might live through him.

ἐν τούτῳ ἐστὶν ἡ ἀγάπη
In this is love:
οὐχ ὅτι ἡμεῖς ἠγαπήκαμεν τὸν θεόν
not that we have loved God,
ἀλλ' ὅτι αὐτὸς ἠγάπησεν ἡμᾶς
but that he loved us
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ

ἱλασμὸν περὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν ἡμῶν
to be the propitiation for our sins.

ἀγαπητοί εἰ οὕτως ὁ θεὸς ἠγάπησεν ἡμᾶς
Beloved, if God thus loved us,
καὶ ἡμεῖς ὀφείλομεν ἀλλήλους ἀγαπᾶν
we also ought to love one another.
θεὸν οὐδεὶς πώποτε τεθέαται
No one has ever seen God.
ἐὰν ἀγαπῶμεν ἀλλήλους
