Darby Bible

1BelovedG27, believeG4100 not every spiritG4151, but prove the spiritsG4151, if they areG1510 of 1GodG2316; because manyG4183 falseG5578 prophetsG5578 areG1510 goneG1831 out into the worldG2889. 2Hereby ye knowG1097 the SpiritG4151 of 2GodG2316: every spiritG4151 which confessesG3670 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 comeG2064 in fleshG4561 isG1510 of 3GodG2316; 3and every spiritG4151 which does not confessG3670 JesusG2424 Christ comeG2064 in flesh isG1510 not of 4GodG2316: and this isG1510 that [power] of the antichristG500, [of] which ye have heardG191 that it comesG2064, and nowG3568 it isG1510 alreadyG2235 in the worldG2889. 4Ye areG1510 of 5GodG2316, children, and have overcomeG3528 them, because greaterG3173 isG1510 he that [isG1510] in you than he that [isG1510] in the worldG2889. 5They areG1510 of the worldG2889; for this reason they speakG2980 [as] of the worldG2889, and the worldG2889 hearsG191 them. 6We areG1510 of 6GodG2316; he that knowsG1097 7GodG2316 hearsG191 us; he who isG1510 not of 8GodG2316 does not hearG191 us. From this we knowG1097 the spiritG4151 of truthG225 and the spiritG4151 of errorG4106. 7BelovedG27, let us loveG26 oneG240 another; because loveG26 isG1510 of 9GodG2316, and every oneG240 that lovesG25 has beenG1510 begottenG1080 of 10GodG2316, and knowsG1097 11GodG2316. 8He that lovesG25 not has not knownG1097 12GodG2316; for 13GodG2316 isG1510 loveG26. 9Herein as to us has been manifestedG5319 the loveG26 of 14GodG2316, that 15GodG2316 has sentG649 his onlyG3439 begottenG3439 SonG5207 into the worldG2889, that we might liveG2198 through him. 10Herein isG1510 loveG26, not that we lovedG25 16GodG2316, but that he lovedG25 us, and sentG649 his SonG5207 a propitiationG2434 for our sinsG266. 11BelovedG27, if 17GodG2316 has so lovedG25 us, we alsoG2532 oughtG3784 to loveG25 oneG240 another. 12No oneG3762 has seenG2300 18GodG2316 at any timeG4455: if we loveG26 oneG3762 another, 19GodG2316 abidesG3306 in us, and his loveG26 isG1510 perfectedG5048 in us. 13Hereby we knowG1097 that we abideG3306 in him and he in us, that he has givenG1325 to us of his SpiritG4151. 14And we have seenG2300, and testifyG3140, that the FatherG3962 has sentG649 the SonG5207 [as] Saviour of the worldG2889. 15Whosoever shall confessG3670 that JesusG2424 isG1510 the SonG5207 of 20GodG2316, 21GodG2316 abidesG3306 in him, and he in 22GodG2316. 16And we have knownG1097 and have believedG4100 the loveG26 which 23GodG2316 has to us. 24GodG2316 isG1510 loveG26, and he that abidesG3306 in loveG26 abidesG3306 in 25GodG2316, and 26GodG2316 in him. 17Herein has loveG26 beenG1510 perfectedG5048 with us that we may have boldnessG3954 in the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920, that evenG2532 as he isG1510, we alsoG2532 areG1510 in this worldG2889. 18There isG1510 no fearG5401 in loveG26, but perfectG5046 loveG26 castsG906 out fearG5401; for fearG5401 has torment, and he that fearsG5399 has not beenG1510 madeG5048 perfectG5046 in loveG26. 19We loveG25 because he has firstG4413 lovedG25 us. 20If any oneG5100 sayG3004, I loveG25 27GodG2316, and hateG3404 his brotherG80, he isG1510 a liarG5583: for he that lovesG25 not his brotherG80 whom he has seenG3708, how can he loveG25 28GodG2316 whom he has not seenG3708? 21And this commandmentG1785 have we from him, That he that lovesG25 29GodG2316 loveG25 alsoG2532 his brotherG80.
