1 John 5:2

A Conservative Version

By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments.

See the chapter Copy

But whoever keeps his word, truly in this man the love of God is fully perfected. By this we know that we are in him.

And we have this commandment from him, so that he who loves God will also love his brother.

These things I command you, so that ye may love each other.

And by this we know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who is not loving the brother abides in death.
