Berean Bible

1 John

5

Background of Book
1 Everyone believing that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone loving the One having begotten Him also loves the one having been begotten from Him. 2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. 3 For this is the love of God, that we should keep His commandments; and His commandments are not burdensome. 4 For everyone having been born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory having overcome the world: our faith. 5 Now who is the one overcoming the world, except the one believing that Jesus is the Son of God? 6 This is the One having come by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and by blood. And the Spirit is the One testifying, because the Spirit is the truth. 7 For there are three bearing testimony: 8 the Spirit and the water and the blood—and these are three in one. 9 If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater. For this is the testimony of God that He has testified concerning His Son. 10 The one believing in the Son of God has the testimony in himself; the one not believing God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has testified concerning His Son. 11 And this is the testimony: that God has given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 The one having the Son has life; the one not having the Son of God does not have life. 13 I have written these things to you, the ones believing in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. 14 And this is the confidence that we have toward Him, that if we might ask anything according to His will, He hears us. 15 And if we know that He hears us, whatever we might ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked from Him. 16 If anyone should see his brother sinning a sin not unto death, he shall ask, and He will give him life, to those sinning not unto death. There is a sin unto death; I do not say that he should implore concerning that. 17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not unto death. 18 We know that everyone having been born of God does not continue to sin, but the One having been begotten of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him. 19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the evil one. 20 Now we know that the Son of God is come and has given us understanding, so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life. 21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
