1 John 5:1-12

¹Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God. Whoever loves the father also loves the child who is born of him. ²By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments. ³For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous. ⁴For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: your faith. ⁵Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? ⁶This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. ⁷It is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is the truth. ⁸For there are three who bear witness, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood; and the three agree as one. ⁹If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is God`s testimony which he has testified concerning his Son. <sup>10</sup>He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in him. He who doesn`t believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son. ¹¹The testimony is this, that God gave to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. ¹²He who has the Son has the life. He who doesn`t have God`s Son doesn`t have the life.
