1Everyone who believes that Yeshua(Jesus) is the Messiah(Christ) has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father loves whoever has been born of Him.
2By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments.
3For this is the love of God — that we keep His commandments; and His commandments are not burdensome.
4For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world — our faith.
5Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes that Yeshua(Jesus) is the Son of God?
6This is He who came by water and blood — Yeshua(Jesus) Messiah(Christ); not by the water only but by the water and the blood; and the pneuma(spirit) is the one who testifies, because the pneuma(spirit) is the aletheia(truth).
7For there are three that testify:
8the pneuma(spirit) and the water and the blood; and these three are in agreement.
9If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for this is the testimony of God that He has testified concerning His Son.
10Whoever believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself; whoever does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has testified concerning His Son.
11And this is the testimony: that God gave us eternal zoe(life), and this zoe(life) is in His Son.
12Whoever has the Son has zoe(life); whoever does not have the Son of God does not have zoe(life).
13I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal zoe(life), and so that you may believe in the name of the Son of God.
14And this is the parresia(confidence, boldness) that we have toward Him — that if we ask anything according to His thelema(will), He hears us.
15And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of Him.
16If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him zoe(life) — to those who commit sins not leading to death; there is sin that leads to death; I do not say that one should pray for that.
17All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death.
18We know that everyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning, but He who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him.
19We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the evil one.
20And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us dianoia(thought) so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true — in His Son Yeshua(Jesus) Messiah(Christ); He is the true God and eternal zoe(life).
21Little children, guard yourselves from idols. Amen.
