1 John / Question
Question source
1 John
It says there is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The passage links mature love with confidence for the day of judgment. See 1 John 4:17–18.
17In this love has been made perfect with us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, even so are we in this world.
18There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.
