'God' in the Bible

And this is the message which we have heard from him, and declare to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

but whoever keeps his word, in him verily the love of God is perfected. Hereby we know that we are in him.

I have written to you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.

And the world is passing, and its lust, but he that does the will of God abides for eternity.

See what love the Father has given to us, that we should be called the children of God. For this reason the world knows us not, because it knew him not.

Beloved, now are we children of God, and what we shall be has not yet been manifested; we know that if it is manifested we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

He that practises sin is of the devil; for from the beginning the devil sins. To this end the Son of God has been manifested, that he might undo the works of the devil.

Whoever has been begotten of God does not practise sin, because his seed abides in him, and he cannot sin, because he has been begotten of God.

In this are manifest the children of God and the children of the devil. Whoever does not practise righteousness is not of God, and he who does not love his brother.

But whoso may have the world's substance, and see his brother having need, and shut up his bowels from him, how abides the love of God in him?

that if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart and knows all things.

Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness towards God,

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but prove the spirits, if they are of God; because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

Hereby ye know the Spirit of God: every spirit which confesses Jesus Christ come in flesh is of God;

and every spirit which does not confess Jesus Christ come in flesh is not of God: and this is that power of the antichrist, of which ye have heard that it comes, and now it is already in the world.

Ye are of God, children, and have overcome them, because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world.

We are of God; he that knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. From this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

Beloved, let us love one another; because love is of God, and every one that loves has been begotten of God, and knows God.

He that loves not has not known God; for God is love.

Herein as to us has been manifested the love of God, that God has sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son a propitiation for our sins.

Beloved, if God has so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

No one has seen God at any time: if we love one another, God abides in us, and his love is perfected in us.

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

And we have known and have believed the love which God has to us. God is love, and he that abides in love abides in God, and God in him.

If any one say, I love God, and hate his brother, he is a liar: for he that loves not his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

And this commandment have we from him, That he that loves God love also his brother.

Every one that believes that Jesus is the Christ is begotten of God; and every one that loves him that has begotten loves also him that is begotten of him.

Hereby know we that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments.

For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments; and his commandments are not grievous.

For all that has been begotten of God gets the victory over the world; and this is the victory which has gotten the victory over the world, our faith.

Who is he that gets the victory over the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater. For this is the witness of God which he has witnessed concerning his Son.

He that believes on the Son of God has the witness in himself; he that does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the witness which God has witnessed concerning his Son.

And this is the witness, that God has given to us eternal life; and this life is in his Son.

He that has the Son has life: he that has not the Son of God has not life.

These things have I written to you that ye may know that ye have eternal life who believe on the name of the Son of God.

We know that every one begotten of God does not sin, but he that has been begotten of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.

We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the wicked one.

And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us an understanding that we should know him that is true; and we are in him that is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
