Faith in the Incarnate Son of God

5Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well.G3956G4100G3754G2424G2076G5547G1080G1537G2316G2532G3956G25G1080G25G2532G1080G1537G846 2This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands.G1722G5129G1097G3754G25G5043G2316G3752G25G2316G2532G5083G846G1785 3This is love for God: to obey his commands. And his commands are not burdensome,G1063G3778G2076G26G2316G2443G5083G846G1785G2532G846G1785G1526G3756G926 4for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.G3754G3956G1080G1537G2316G3528G2889G2532G3778G2076G3529G3528G2889G2257G4102 5Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.G5101G2076G3528G2889G1508G4100G3754G2424G2076G5207G2316 6This is the one who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.G3778G2076G2064G1223G5204G2532G129G2424G5547G3756G1722G5204G3440G235G1722G5204G2532G129G2532G2076G4151G3140G3754G4151G2076G225 7For there are three that testify:G3754G1526G5140G3140G1722G3772G3962G3056G2532G40G4151G2532G3778G5140G1526G1520 8the Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement.G2532G1526G5140G3140G1722G1093G4151G2532G5204G2532G129G2532G5140G1526G1519G1520 9We accept man's testimony, but God's testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son.G1487G2983G3141G444G3141G2316G2076G3187G3754G3778G2076G3141G2316G3739G3140G4012G846G5207 10Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son.G4100G1519G5207G2316G2192G3141G1722G1438G4100G3361G2316G4160G846G5583G3754G4100G3756G1519G3141G3739G2316G3140G4012G846G5207 11And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.G2532G3778G2076G3141G3754G2316G1325G2254G166G2222G2532G3778G2222G2076G1722G846G5207 12He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.G2192G5207G2192G2222G2192G3361G5207G2316G2192G3756G2222

Concluding Affirmations

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 14This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.G2532G3778G2076G3954G3739G2192G4314G846G3754G1437G154G5100G2596G846G2307G191G2257 15And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.G2532G1437G1492G3754G191G2257G3739G302G154G1492G3754G2192G155G3739G154G3844G846 16If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not lead to death, he should pray and God will give him life. I refer to those whose sin does not lead to death. There is a sin that leads to death. I am not saying that he should pray about that.G1437G5100G1492G846G80G264G266G3361G4314G2288G154G2532G1325G846G2222G264G3361G4314G2288G2076G266G4314G2288G3756G3004G2443G2065G4012G1565 17All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death.G3956G93G2076G266G2532G2076G266G3756G4314G2288 18We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the one who was born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him.G1492G3754G3956G1080G1537G2316G264G3756G235G1080G1537G2316G5083G1438G2532G4190G680G846G3756 19We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.G1492G3754G2070G1537G2316G2532G3650G2889G2749G1722G4190 20We know also 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—even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.G1161G1492G3754G5207G2316G2240G2532G1325G2254G1271G2443G1097G228G2532G2070G1722G228G1722G846G5207G2424G5547G3778G2076G228G2316G2532G166G2222 21Dear children, keep yourselves from idols.G5040G5442G1438G575G1497G281
