1 John 5:1-12
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of
God, and everyone who loves the Father loves whoever has been born
of Him. 2 By this we know that we love the children of
God, when we love God and obey His commandments. 3 For
this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His
commandments are not burdensome. 4 For everyone who has
been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that
has overcome the world—our faith. 5 Who is it that
overcomes the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the
Son of God? 6 This is He who came by water and
blood—Jesus Christ; not by the water only but by the water and the
blood. And the Spirit is the one who testifies, because the Spirit
is the truth. 7 For there are three that testify:
8 the Spirit and the water and the blood; and these
three agree. 9 If we receive the testimony of men, the
testimony of God is greater, for this is the testimony of God that
He has borne concerning His Son. 10 Whoever believes in
the Son of God has the testimony in himself. Whoever does not
believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the
testimony that God has borne concerning His Son. 11 And
this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life
is in His Son. 12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever
does not have the Son of God does not have life.
