Augustine of Hippo · A.D. 354–430
1John 4:11 · Douay-Rheims
“My dearest, if God hath so loved us; we also ought to love one another.”
On this verse:
“He sacrificed for our sins. Where did He find the sacrifice? Where did He find the victim which he would offer pure? Other He found none; His own self He offered. "Beloved, if God so loved us we ought also to love one another." "Peter," saith He, "lovest thou me?" And he said, "I love." "Feed my sheep."”
