1
Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and every one that loveth Him that begot, loveth Him also that is begotten by Him.
2
By this we know that we love the children of God: when we love God and keep His commandments.
3
For this is the love of God: that we keep His commandments; and His commandments are not grievous.
4
For whosoever is born of God overcometh the world. And this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.Œ
5
Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
6
This is He that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
