ETERNAL LIFE
I 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.
I 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.
This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loveing God and carrying out His commands. This is love for God: to obey His commands. And His commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world.
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.
And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this eternal life is in His Son.
He did not come by water only, but by water and blood.
This is tha love for God: to obey His commands. And His commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, eevn our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
We love because He first loved us.
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
God is love. Whoever live in love lives in God and God in him.
In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgement, because in this world we are like Him.
If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in him and he in God.
