The Witness concerning the Son
1Jn.5.6-12
5
6
This is he who came with water and blood: Jesus 6 Christ. He came, not by water alone, but by water and blood; and there is the Spirit to bear witness, because the Spirit is truth.
5
7
(7-8) For there are three witnesses, the Spirit, the water, and the blood, and these three are in agreement.
5
9
We accept human testimony, but surely divine testimony is stronger, and this threefold testimony is indeed that of God himself, the witness he has borne to his Son.
5
10
He who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his own heart, but he who disbelieves God, makes him out to be a liar, by refusing to accept God's own witness to his Son.
5
11
The witness is this: that God has given us eternal life, and that this life is found in his Son.
5
12
He who possesses the Son has life indeed; he who does not possess the Son of God has not that life.
