Cool! I think, for better effect, you should shorten the sentence. Jesus' words are memorable because they were short and to the point, not because they were long speeches. Paul actually preached so long one time, a guy fell asleep in the window and just... fell! Like, a ways. He was okay, though.
Anyway, whenever you do stuff like this, condense it.
I would go with, "Before every betrayal there was love" or "To be betrayed, one must first be loved" something of that nature.
