“No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and His love is perfected in us,” (I John 4:12)
John makes the identical statement in the Gospel of John, chapter one, verse eighteen, concerning no man having seen God at any time. There, John makes an additional statement, “…The only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared Him.”
One of the proofs of God dwelling in us is our love for others. When a professing believer loves others God’s love is complete in him. We are recipients of His love and we are to pass that love on to others to complete the cycle. The world will see God in us and know we are Christians by our love.
