11BelovedG27, ifG1487 GodG2316 soG3779 lovedG25 usG1473, weG1473 alsoG2532 oughtG3784 to loveG25 one anotherG240. 12No oneG3762 has ever seenG2300G4455 GodG2316; but ifG1437 we loveG25 one anotherG240, GodG2316 remainsG3306 inG1722 usG1473, andG2532 HisG846 loveG26 isG1510 perfectedG5048 inG1722 usG1473. 13ByG1722 thisG3778 we knowG1097 thatG3754 we remainG3306 inG1722 HimG846, andG2532 HeG846 inG1722 usG1473: He has givenG1325 usG1473 ofG1537 HisG846 SpiritG4151. 14AndG2532 weG1473 have seenG2300 andG2532 testifyG3140 thatG3754 theG3588 FatherG3962 has sentG649 His SonG5207 to be the SaviorG4990 of theG3588 worldG2889.

15IfG1437 anyoneG3739 confessesG3670 thatG3754 JesusG2424 isG1510 theG3588 SonG5207 of GodG2316, GodG2316 abidesG3306 inG1722 himG846, andG2532 heG846 inG1722 GodG2316. 16AndG2532 weG1473 have come to knowG1097 andG2532 believeG4100 theG3588 loveG26 thatG3739 GodG2316 hasG2192 forG1722 usG1473. GodG2316 isG1510 loveG26; whoeverG3588 abidesG3306 inG1722 loveG26 abidesG3306 inG1722 GodG2316, andG2532 GodG2316 inG1722 himG846.
