1 John 5:9-13

9 ¹If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for the testimony of God is this, that ²He has testified concerning His Son.

10 The one who believes in the Son of God ³has the testimony in himself; the one who does not believe God has ⁴made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning His Son.

11 And the testimony is this, that God has given us ⁵eternal life, and ⁶this life is in His Son.

12 ⁷He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.

This Is Written That You May Know

13 ⁸These things I have written to you who ⁹believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have ¹⁰eternal life.
