But whoever has worldly goods and sees his brother or sister in need, and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God remain in him?

The one who keeps His commandments remains in Him, and He in him. We know by this that He remains in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.

By this we know that we remain in Him and He in us, because He has given to us of His Spirit.

Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him, and he in God.

We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him.

And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.
