The problem here, I think, is that EK TOU QEOU in both clauses belongs to
the predicate rather than to hH AGAPH; in the first clause it must be
construed with ESTIN, in the following with GEGENNHTAI.
AGAPHTOI, AGAPWMEN ALLHLOIS, hOTI hH AGAPH EK TOU QEOU ESTIN, KAI PAS hO
AGAPWN EK TOU QEOU GEGENNHTAI KAI GINWSKEI TON QEON.
