Faith Conquers the World

5Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the parent loves the child.G3956G4100G3754G2424G2076G5547G1080G1537G2316G2532G3956G25G1080G25G2532G1080G1537G846 2By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments.G1722G5129G1097G3754G25G5043G2316G3752G25G2316G2532G5083G846G1785 3For the love of God is this, that we obey his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome,G1063G3778G2076G26G2316G2443G5083G846G1785G2532G846G1785G1526G3756G926 4for whatever is born of God conquers the world. And this is the victory that conquers the world, our faith.G3754G3956G1080G1537G2316G3528G2889G2532G3778G2076G3529G3528G2889G2257G4102 5Who is it that conquers the world but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?G5101G2076G3528G2889G1508G4100G3754G2424G2076G5207G2316

Testimony concerning the Son of God

6This is the one who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ, not with the water only but with the water and the blood. And the Spirit is the one that testifies, for the Spirit is the truth.G3778G2076G2064G1223G5204G2532G129G2424G5547G3756G1722G5204G3440G235G1722G5204G2532G129G2532G2076G4151G3140G3754G4151G2076G225 7There are three that testify:G3754G1526G5140G3140G1722G3772G3962G3056G2532G40G4151G2532G3778G5140G1526G1520 8the Spirit and the water and the blood, and these three agree.G2532G1526G5140G3140G1722G1093G4151G2532G5204G2532G129G2532G5140G1526G1519G1520 9If we receive human testimony, the testimony of God is greater; for this is the testimony of God that he has testified to his Son.G1487G2983G3141G444G3141G2316G2076G3187G3754G3778G2076G3141G2316G3739G3140G4012G846G5207 10Those who believe in the Son of God have the testimony in their hearts. Those who do not believe in God have made him a liar by not believing in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.G4100G1519G5207G2316G2192G3141G1722G1438G4100G3361G2316G4160G846G5583G3754G4100G3756G1519G3141G3739G2316G3140G4012G846G5207 11And this is the testimony: God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.G2532G3778G2076G3141G3754G2316G1325G2254G166G2222G2532G3778G2222G2076G1722G846G5207 12Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.G2192G5207G2192G2222G2192G3361G5207G2316G2192G3756G2222

Epilogue

13I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.G5023G1125G5213G4100G1519G3686G5207G2316G2443G1492G3754G2192G166G2222G2532G2443G4100G1519G3686G5207G2316 14And this is the boldness we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.G2532G3778G2076G3954G3739G2192G4314G846G3754G1437G154G5100G2596G846G2307G191G2257 15And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have obtained the requests made of him.G2532G1437G1492G3754G191G2257G3739G302G154G1492G3754G2192G155G3739G154G3844G846 16If you see your brother or sister committing what is not a mortal sin, you will ask, and God will give life to such a one—to those whose sin is not mortal. There is sin that is mortal; I do not say that you should pray about that.G1437G5100G1492G846G80G264G266G3361G4314G2288G154G2532G1325G846G2222G264G3361G4314G2288G2076G266G4314G2288G3756G3004G2443G2065G4012G1565 17All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin that is not mortal.G3956G93G2076G266G2532G2076G266G3756G4314G2288 18We know that those who are born of God do not sin, but the one who was born of God protects them, and the evil one does not touch them.G1492G3754G3956G1080G1537G2316G264G3756G235G1080G1537G2316G5083G1438G2532G4190G680G846G3756 19We know that we are God's children, and that the whole world lies under the power of the evil one.G1492G3754G2070G1537G2316G2532G3650G2889G2749G1722G4190 20And 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. He is the true God and eternal life.G1161G1492G3754G5207G2316G2240G2532G1325G2254G1271G2443G1097G228G2532G2070G1722G228G1722G846G5207G2424G5547G3778G2076G228G2316G2532G166G2222 21Little children, keep yourselves from idols.G5040G5442G1438G575G1497G281
