1 John 3:1

See what kind of love the Father has given to us , that we should be called children of God ; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him .

See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.

Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God : therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
