1 John 5:3


← 1 John 5:2 1 John 5:3 (KJV) 1 John 5:4 →
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
