| 5 | 1 John | ||
| 1 | Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God, and everyone who loves the parent loves the child. | Faith is Victory over the World 1Jn.5.1-5 | |
| 2 | By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments. | ||
| 3 | For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome. | ||
| 4 | For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith. | ||
| 5 | Who is it that overcomes the world but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? | ||
| 6 | This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ, not with the water only but with the water and the blood. | The Witness concerning the Son 1Jn.5.6-12 | |
| 7 | And the Spirit is the witness, because the Spirit is the truth. | ||
| 8 | There are three witnesses, the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree. | ||
| 9 | If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for this is the testimony of God that he has borne witness to his Son. | ||
| 10 | He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has borne to his Son. | ||
| 11 | And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. | ||
| 12 | He who has the Son has life; he who has not the Son of God has not life. | ||
| 13 | I write this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life. | The Knowledge of Eternal Life 1Jn.5.13-21 | |
| 14 | And this is the confidence which we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. | ||
| 15 | And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have obtained the requests made of him. | ||
| 16 | If anyone sees his brother committing what is not a mortal sin, he will ask, and God will give him life for those whose sin is not mortal. There is sin which is mortal; I do not say that one is to pray for that. | ||
| 17 | All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin which is not mortal. | ||
| 18 | We know that anyone born of God does not sin, but He who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him. | ||
| 19 | We know that we are of God, and the whole world is in the power of the evil one. | ||
| 20 | And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, to 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. | ||
| 21 | Little children, keep yourselves from idols. | ||
