1 John 4:21-5:4
New International Version
21 And he has given us this command:(A) Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.(B)
Faith in the Incarnate Son of God
5 Everyone who believes(C) that Jesus is the Christ(D) is born of God,(E) and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well.(F) 2 This is how we know(G) that we love the children of God:(H) by loving God and carrying out his commands. 3 In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands.(I) And his commands are not burdensome,(J) 4 for everyone born of God(K) overcomes(L) the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.

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 keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
