Intriguing video, Just a quick note. The very last scene of your video states a verse from the Bible: "Beloved, if God so loved us, we should also love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God abides in us and His love is perfected in us." In the clip you wrote the biblical reference of this verse as John 4:12-13 when It is actually 1 John 4:12. Probably just accidentally left out the 1 before John but i figured it was worth mentioning.
