1 John 5:1–10
WHOSOEVER believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.
¶ Whosoeuer beleeueth that Iesus is the Christ, is borne of God: and euery one that loueth him that begate, loueth him also that is begotten of him.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
By this wee know that wee loue the children of God, when we loue God and keepe his commandements.
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
For this is the loue of God, that we keepe his commandements, and his commandements are not grieuous.
For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
For whatsoeuer is borne of God, ouercommeth the world, and this is the victorie that ouercommeth the world, euen our faith.
Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
Who is he that ouercommeth the world, but he that beleeueth that Iesus is the Sonne of God?
This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
This is hee that came by water and blood, euen Iesus Christ, not by water onely, but by water and blood: and it is the Spirit that beareth witnesse, because the Spirit is trueth.
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
For there are three that beare record in heauen, the Father, the Word, and the holy Ghost: and these three are one.
And there are three that bear witness in earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
And there are three that beare witnesse in earth, the Spirit, and the Water, and the Blood, and these three agree in one.
If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.
If we receiue the witnesse of men, the witnesse of God is greater: for this is the witnesse of God, which hee hath testified of his Sonne.
He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
Hee that beleeueth on the Sonne of God, hath the witnesse in himselfe: he that beleeueth not God, hath made him a liar, because he beleeueth not the record that God gaue of his Sonne.
