Charles Spurgeon Commentary 1 John 3:23

"And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he gave us commandment." — 1 John 3:23 (ASV)

And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

Faith and love - faith in Christ, and love to one another - are here most happily joined together; let us never put them asunder.
