Contextual Overview

3 And hereby we are sure that we knowe hym, yf we kepe his comaundementes. 4 He that sayth I knowe hym, and kepeth not his commaundementes, is a lyer, and the veritie is not in hym: 5 But who so kepeth his worde, in him is the loue of God perfect in deede. Hereby knowe we that we are in hym. 6 He that sayth he bydeth in him, ought to walke euen as he walked.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

He that saith I know him,.... God or Christ, as the Gnostics did, who pretended to great, even perfect, knowledge of divine things:

and keepeth not his commandments; which the above persons had no regard to, and as many who profess great light and knowledge in our days show no concern for:

is a liar; he contradicts what he says, and gives the lie to it; for though in words he professes to know God, in works he denies him, and which betrays his ignorance of him:

and the truth is not in him; there is no true knowledge of God and Christ in him; nor is the truth of the Gospel in his heart, however it may be in his head; nor is the truth of grace in him, for each of these lead persons to obedience. The Ethiopic version renders it, "the truth of God is not with him"; :-.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

He that saith, I know Him - He who professes to be acquainted with the Saviour, or who professes to be a Christian.

And keepeth not his commandments - What he has appointed to be observed by his people; that is, he who does not obey him.

Is a liar - Makes a false profession; professes to have that which he really has not. Such a profession is a falsehood, because there can be no true religion where one does not obey the law of God.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 John 2:4. He that saith, I know him — This is a severe blow against those false teachers, and against all pretenders to religious knowledge, who live under the power of their sins; and against all Antinomians, and false boasters in the righteousness of Christ as a covering for their personal unholiness. They are all liars, and no truth of God is in them.
