We’re back with another religious wedding reading from the Bible. 1 John 4:7-12 is a wedding reading all about that thing we’re all chasing after…love! This reading teaches us that knowing God is knowing love. If you have faith then you’ll always have love. Everything about God and everything God does is through and because of love. This reading then goes on to say that through love you are closer to God than you ever could be.

1 John 4:7-12

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.
This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
