In context

6We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. That is how we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of deception.

7Beloved, let us love one another, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.

8Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

9This is how God’s love was revealed among us: God sent His one and only Son into the world, so that we might live through Him.

10And love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.
