π 1 John 4:18 (NKJV)
"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love."
π Exegetical Insight: "Perfect love" (hΔ teleia agapΔ) - teleia means complete, mature, having reached its intended purpose. "Casts out" (ballei exΕ) is present active indicative - love continuously expels fear. "Fear involves torment" (ho phobos kolasin echei) - kolasis means punishment or correction. Fear expects punishment, but perfect love has already dealt with all punishment at the cross.
