1 John 5:1-8

Common English Bible w/ Apocrypha CEBA

1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born from God. Whoever loves someone who is a parent loves the child born to the parent.

2 This is how we know that we love the children of God: when we love God and keep God's commandments.

3 This is the love of God: we keep God's commandments. God's commandments are not difficult,

4 because everyone who is born from God defeats the world. And this is the victory that has defeated the world: our faith.

5 Who defeats the world? Isn't it the one who believes that Jesus is God's Son?

6 This is the one who came by water and blood: Jesus Christ. Not by water only but by water and blood. And the Spirit is the one who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.

7 The three are testifying—

8 the Spirit, the water, and the blood—and the three are united in agreement.

New International Version NIV

1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well.

2 This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands.

3 In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands. And his commands are not burdensome,

4 for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.

5 Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

6 This is the one who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.

7 For there are three that testify:

8 the Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement.
