Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God.

And we have known and have believed the charity which God hath to us. God is charity: and he that abideth in charity abideth in God, and God in him.

In this is the charity of God perfected with us, that we may have confidence in the day of judgment: because as he is, we also are in this world.

Let us therefore love God: because God first hath loved us.

If any man say: I love God, and hateth his brother; he is a liar. For he that loveth not his brother whom he seeth, how can he love God whom he seeth not?

And this commandment we have from God, that he who loveth God love also his brother.

Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ, is born of God. And every one that loveth him who begot, loveth him also who is born of him.

In this we know that we love the children of God: when we love God and keep his commandments.

For this is the charity of God: That we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not heavy.

For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world. And this is the victory which overcameth the world: Our faith.

Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater. For this is the testimony of God, which is greater, because he hath testified of his Son.

He that believeth in the Son of God hath the testimony of God in himself. He that believeth not the Son maketh him a liar: because he believeth not in the testimony which God hath testified of his Son.

And this is the testimony that God hath given to us eternal life. And this life is in his Son.

These things I write to you that you may know that you have eternal life: you who believe in the name of the Son of God.

We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not: but the generation of God preserveth him and the wicked one toucheth him not.

We know that we are of God and the whole world is seated in wickedness.

And we know that the Son of God is come. And he hath given us understanding that we may know the true God and may be in his true Son. This is the true God and life eternal.

Grace be with you, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Christ Jesus the Son of the Father: in truth and charity.

Whosoever revolteth and continueth not in the doctrine of Christ hath not God. He that continueth in the doctrine, the same hath both the Father and the Son.
