1
Every one that believes that Jesus is the Christ is begotten of God; and every one that loves him that has begotten loves also him that is begotten of him.
2
Hereby know we 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 all that has been begotten of God gets the victory over the world; and this is the victory which has gotten the victory over the world, our faith.
5
Who is he that gets the victory over the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
6
This is he that came by water and blood, Jesus [the] Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that bears witness, for the Spirit is the truth.
