They went out from vs, but they were not of vs: for if they had bene of vs, they should haue continued with vs. But this cometh to paße, that it might appeare, that they are not all of vs.

Beholde, what loue the Father hath giuen to vs, that we should be called the sonnes of God: for this cause this world knoweth you not, because it knoweth not him.

Dearely beloued, nowe are we the sonnes of God, but yet it is not made manifest what we shall be: and we know that when he shalbe made manifest, we shalbe like him: for we shall see him as he is.

Whosoeuer committeth sinne, transgresseth also the Law: for sinne is the transgression of the Lawe.

He that comitteth sinne, is of the deuil: for the deuill sinneth from the beginning: for this purpose was made manifest that Sonne of God, that he might loose the workes of the deuil.

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