²⁰^fIf anyone says, “I love God,” and ^ghates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot¹ love God ^hwhom he has not seen. ²¹And ⁱthis commandment we have from him: ^jwhoever loves God must also love his brother.

Overcoming the World

5^kEveryone who believes that ^lJesus is the Christ has been born of God, and ^meveryone who loves the Father loves whoever has been born of him. ²ⁿBy this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments. ³For ^othis is the love of God, that we ^pkeep his commandments. And ^qhis commandments are not burdensome. ⁴For ^reveryone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—^sour faith. ⁵Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes ^tthat Jesus is the Son of God?

Read in Logos
