1 John 5

NEW JERUSALEM	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God, and whoever loves the father loves the son.	1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.
2 In this way we know that we love God's children, when we love God and keep his commandments.	2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
3 This is what the love of God is: keeping his commandments. Nor are his commandments burdensome,	3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
4 because every child of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world --our faith.	4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
5 Who can overcome the world but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?	5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 He it is who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ, not with water alone but with water and blood, andit is the Spirit that bears witness, for the Spirit is Truth.	6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
7 So there are three witnesses,	7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
8 the Spirit, water and blood; and the three of them coincide.	8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
9 If we accept the testimony of human witnesses, God's testimony is greater, for this is God's testimonywhich he gave about his Son.	9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.
10 Whoever believes in the Son of God has this testimony within him, and whoever does not believe ismaking God a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son.	10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
11 This is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.	11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
12 Whoever has the Son has life, and whoever has not the Son of God has not life.	12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
13 I have written this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that youhave eternal life.	13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
14 Our fearlessness towards him consists in this, that if we ask anything in accordance with his wil hehears us.	14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:
15 And if we know that he listens to whatever we ask him, we know that we already possess whatever wehave asked of him.	15 And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.
16 If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that is not a deadly sin, he has only to pray, and God wil givelife to this brother -- provided that it is not a deadly sin. There is sin that leads to death and I am not saying youmust pray about that.	16 If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
17 Every kind of wickedness is sin, but not al sin leads to death.	17 All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death.
18 We are wel aware that no one who is a child of God sins, because he who was born from Godprotects him, and the Evil One has no hold over him.	18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
19 We are wel aware that we are from God, and the whole world is in the power of the Evil One.	19 And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
20 We are wel aware also that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding so that wemay know the One who is true. We are in the One who is true as we are in his Son, Jesus Christ. He is the trueGod and this is eternal life. Children, be on your guard against false gods.	20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
	21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
