1 John 5

The Message Bible MSG

1 Every person who believes that Jesus is, in fact, the Messiah, is God-begotten. If we love the One who conceives the child, we'll surely love the child who was conceived.

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.

6 Jesus - the Divine Christ! He experienced a life-giving birth and a death-killing death. Not only birth from the womb, but baptismal birth of his ministry and sacrificial death. And all the while the Spirit is confirming the truth, the reality of God's presence at Jesus' baptism and crucifixion, bringing those occasions alive for us.[(s15.7)] A triple testimony:

8 the Spirit, the Baptism, the Crucifixion. And the three in perfect agreement.

9 If we take human testimony at face value, how much more should we be reassured when God gives testimony as he does here, testifying concerning his Son.

10 Whoever believes in the Son of God inwardly confirms God's testimony. Whoever refuses to believe in effect calls God a liar, refusing to believe God's own testimony regarding his Son.

11 This is the testimony in essence: God gave us eternal life; the life is in his Son.

12 So, whoever has the Son, has life; whoever rejects the Son, rejects life.

13 My purpose in writing is simply this: that you who believe in God's Son will know beyond the shadow of a doubt that you have eternal life, the reality and not the illusion.

14 And how bold and free we then become in his presence, freely asking according to his will, sure that he's listening.

15 And if we're confident that he's listening, we know that what we've asked for is as good as ours.

16 For instance, if we see a Christian believer sinning (clearly I'm not talking about those who make a practice of sin in a way that is "fatal," leading to eternal death), we ask for God's help and he gladly gives it, gives life to the sinner whose sin is not fatal. There is such a thing as a fatal sin, and I'm not urging you to pray about that.

17 Everything we do wrong is sin, but not all sin is fatal.

18 We know that none of the God-begotten makes a practice of sin - fatal sin. The God-begotten are also the God-protected. The Evil One can't lay a hand on them.

19 We know that we are held firm by God; it's only the people of the world who continue in the grip of the Evil One.

20 And we know that the Son of God came so we could recognize and understand the truth of God - what a gift! - and we are living in the Truth itself, in God's Son, Jesus Christ. This Jesus is both True God and Real Life.

21 Dear children, be on guard against all clever facsimiles.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 omnis qui credit quoniam Iesus est Christus ex Deo natus est et omnis qui diligit eum qui genuit diligit eum qui natus est ex eo

2 in hoc cognoscimus quoniam diligimus natos Dei cum Deum diligamus et mandata eius faciamus

3 haec est enim caritas Dei ut mandata eius custodiamus et mandata eius gravia non sunt

4 quoniam omne quod natum est ex Deo vincit mundum et haec est victoria quae vincit mundum fides nostra

5 quis est qui vincit mundum nisi qui credit quoniam Iesus est Filius Dei

6 hic est qui venit per aquam et sanguinem Iesus Christus non in aqua solum sed in aqua et sanguine et Spiritus est qui testificatur quoniam Christus est veritas

8 Spiritus et aqua et sanguis et tres unum sunt

9 si testimonium hominum accipimus testimonium Dei maius est quoniam hoc est testimonium Dei quod maius est quia testificatus est de Filio suo

10 qui credit in Filio Dei habet testimonium Dei in se qui non credit Filio mendacem facit eum quoniam non credidit in testimonio quod testificatus est Deus de Filio suo

11 et hoc est testimonium quoniam vitam aeternam dedit nobis Deus et haec vita in Filio eius est

12 qui habet Filium habet vitam qui non habet Filium Dei vitam non habet

13 haec scripsi vobis ut sciatis quoniam vitam habetis aeternam qui creditis in nomine Filii Dei

14 et haec est fiducia quam habemus ad eum quia quodcumque petierimus secundum voluntatem eius audit nos

15 et scimus quoniam audit nos quicquid petierimus scimus quoniam habemus petitiones quas postulavimus ab eo

16 qui scit fratrem suum peccare peccatum non ad mortem petet et dabit ei vitam peccantibus non ad mortem est peccatum ad mortem non pro illo dico ut roget

17 omnis iniquitas peccatum est et est peccatum non ad mortem

18 scimus quoniam omnis qui natus est ex Deo non peccat sed generatio Dei conservat eum et malignus non tangit eum

19 scimus quoniam ex Deo sumus et mundus totus in maligno positus est

20 et scimus quoniam Filius Dei venit et dedit nobis sensum ut cognoscamus verum Deum et simus in vero Filio eius hic est verus Deus et vita aeterna

21 filioli custodite vos a simulacris
