1 John 5:2-5

2 The reality test on whether or not we love God's children is this: Do we love God? Do we keep his commands?

3 The proof that we love God comes when we keep his commandments and they are not at all troublesome.

4 Every God-begotten person conquers the world's ways. The conquering power that brings the world to its knees is our faith.

5 The person who wins out over the world's ways is simply the one who believes Jesus is the Son of God.
