1 John 2:4-7
4The one who saysG3004, “1I have come to 2knowG1097 Him,” and does not keepG5083 His commandmentsG1785, is a 3liarG5583, and 4the truthG225 is not in him; 5but whoeverG3739G302 5keepsG5083 His wordG3056, in him the 6loveG26 of GodG2316 has trulyG230 been perfectedG5048. 7By thisG3778 we knowG1097 that we are in Him: 6the one who saysG3004 he 8abidesG3306 in Him 9oughtG3784 himselfG846 to walkG4043 in the sameG3779 mannerG3779 as He walkedG4043.
710BelovedG27, I am 11not writingG1125 a newG2537 commandmentG1785 to you, but an oldG3820 commandmentG1785 whichG3739 you have hadG2192 12from the beginningG746; the oldG3820 commandmentG1785 is the wordG3056 whichG3739 you have heardG191.
