John 4 – God is Love

1 john 4

Abby thinks that her Pastor committed a grammatical error when he quoted John 4:7-8. “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.”

Abby: My Pastor said "God is Love."

Abby: Oh.

Abby: Can I still say "Abby is dance?"
