the love of God... I John 3:16

From Samuel Bagster's Daily Light for the Daily Path Devotional [c. 1875]


Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us. I John 3:16

The love of Christ, which passeth knowledge. Eph. 3:19

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends John 15:13

Ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. II Cor. 8:9

Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. I John 4:11

Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Eph. 4:32

Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. Col. 3:13

For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many. Mark 10:45

Christ...suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps. I Pet. 2:21

Ye also ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. John 13:14, 15

We ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. I John 3:16
