but whoso keepeth his word, in him verily hath the love of God been perfected. Hereby we know that we are in him:

He who says that he is in the light, and has hate in his heart for his brother, is still in the dark.

But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he is departing, because the darkness hath blinded his eyes.

Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that confesseth the Son hath the Father also.

And this is the promise which he hath promised to us, even life eternal.

But the unction which ye have received from him abideth in you; and ye need not that any person should instruct you. But as the same unction teacheth you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie; and as it hath taught you, abide in him.

if ye know that he is righteous, know ye that every one doing the righteousness, of him hath been begotten.

BEHOLD, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called children of God! therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

Beloved! now, are we, children of God; and, not yet, hath it been made manifest, what we shall be, - We know that, if it should be made manifest, like unto him, shall we be, because we shall see him, just as he is.

And every one who hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

Every one who abideth in him, doth not sin; every one who sinneth hath not seen him, nor known him.

every one who hath been begotten of God, sin he doth not, because his seed in him doth remain, and he is not able to sin, because of God he hath been begotten.

not [hate each other] the way Cain did, who belonged to the evil one [i.e., Satan], when he murdered his brother [Abel]. And why did he murder him? It was because his [own] actions were evil and his brother's were righteous [See Heb. 11:4].

Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.

Every one who hateth his brother is a murderer; and ye know that no murderer hath life eternal abiding in him.

But whosoever hath worldly abundance, and seeth his brother under necessity, and shutteth his bowels of compassion against him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

His command is this??hat we are to believe in his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he has commanded us to do.

And he that keepeth his commandments abideth in him, and he in him; and by this we know that he abideth in us, from the Spirit which he hath given us.

By this ye know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ hath come in the flesh, is from God:

Beloved, may we love one another, because the love is of God, and every one who is loving, of God he hath been begotten, and doth know God;

he that loveth not hath not known God; for God is love.

Herein was the love of God manifested in us, that God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world that we might live through him.

Herein is love, not that we have loved God, but that he hath loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiatory sacrifice for our sins.

No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

By this we know that we abide in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his own Spirit.

And we have beheld and bear witness that the Father hath sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

And we have known and believed the love which God hath towards us. God is love; and he that abideth in love, abideth in God, and God in him.

In this made perfect hath been the love with us, that boldness we may have in the day of the judgment, because even as He is, we -- we also are in this world;

Fear is not in this love; but the perfect love casteth out fear: for fear hath anguish. He that is afraid is not made perfect in love.

If any person say, I love God, yet hateth his brother, he is a liar; for he who loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love the God whom he hath not seen?

Every one who is believing that Jesus is the Christ, of God he hath been begotten, and every one who is loving Him who did beget, doth love also him who is begotten of Him:

For whatsoever is begotten of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that hath overcome the world, even our faith.

If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for the witness of God is this, that he hath borne witness concerning his Son.

He that believeth on the Son of God, hath the testimony in himself; he that believeth not God, hath made him a liar, because he hath not believed on the testimony which God testified of his Son.

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

He that hath the Son, hath this life; and he that hath not the Son of God, hath not this life.

We have known that every one who hath been begotten of God doth not sin, but he who was begotten of God doth keep himself, and the evil one doth not touch him;

But we know that the Son of God hath come, and hath given to us understanding, that we might know the true God; and we are in him that is true, in his Son Jesus the Messiah. HE is the true God, and the life eternal.
