He that commytteth synne, is of the deuell: for the deuell synneth sence ye begynnynge. For this purpose appeared the sonne of God, to lowse the workes of the deuell.

Who so euer is borne of God, synneth not: for his sede remayneth in him, & he ca not synne, because he is borne of God.

By this are the children of God knowne & the children of the deuell. Who so euer doeth not righteousnes, is not of God, nether he thath loueth not his brother.

But he yt hath this worldes good, & seyth his brother haue nede, and shutteth vp his hert fro him, how dwelleth the loue of God in him?

But yf oure hert condemne vs, God is greater the oure hert, and knoweth all thinges.

Dearly beloued, yf oure hert condemne vs not, then haue we a fre boldnes to God warde.

Dearly beleued, beleue not ye euery sprete, but proue the spretes, whether they be of God. For many false prophetes are gone out in to the worlde.

Hereby shal ye knowe the sprete of God: Euery sprete which confesseth, that Iesus Christ is come in the flesh, is of God:

And euery sprete which confesseth not that Iesus Christ is come in the flesh, is not off God. And this is that sprete of Antechrist, off whom ye haue herde, how that he shal come, and euen now allready is he in the worlde.

Litle children, ye are off God, and haue ouercome them: for greater is he that is in you, then he that is in the worlde.

We are of God, and he that knoweth God, herkeneth vnto vs: he that is not of God, heareth vs not. Here by knowe we the sprete of trueth, and ye sprete of erroure.

Dearly beloued, let vs loue one another, for loue commeth of God. And euery one yt loueth, is borne of God, and knoweth God.

He that loueth not, knoweth not God: for God is loue.

By this appeared the loue of God to vs warde, because that God sent his onely begotten sonne in to this worlde, that we mighte lyue thorow him.

Herein is loue, not that we loued God, but that he loued vs, and sent his sonne to make agremet for oure synnes.

Dearly beloued, yf God so loued vs, we oughte also to loue one another.

No man hath sene God at eny tyme. Yf we loue one another, God dwelleth in vs, and his loue is perfecte in vs.

Whosoeuer now confesseth yt Iesus is the sonne of God in him dwelleth God, and he in God:

and we haue knowne and beleued the loue that God hath to vs. God is loue, and he that dwelleth in loue dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Yf eny man saye: I loue God, & yet hateth his brother, he is a lyar. For he that loueth not his brother whom he seyth, how can he loue God, whom he seyth not?
