¹ Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is begotten of God: and whosoever loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.

⁴² Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I came forth and am come from God; for neither have I come of myself, but he sent me.

¹² But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, `even' to them that believe on his name:

¹³ who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

⁴ For whatsoever is begotten of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that hath overcome the world, `even' our faith.

²⁹ If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one also that doeth righteousness is begotten of him.

²² Who is the liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, `even' he that denieth the Father and the Son.

²³ Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that confesseth the Son hath the Father also.

²³ He that hateth me hateth my Father also.

⁹ because if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus `as' Lord, and shalt believe in thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved:

¹⁰ for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

¹⁷ But whoso hath the world's goods, and beholdeth his brother in need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how doth the love of God abide in him?

² Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:

³ Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except one be born anew, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

¹⁶ And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

²⁰ If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, cannot love God whom he hath not seen.

¹⁸ Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

³ Blessed `be' the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy begat us again unto a living hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

²² Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another from the heart fervently:

²³ having been begotten again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which liveth and abideth.

¹⁰ He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is no occasion of stumbling in him.

⁹ Whosoever is begotten of God doeth no sin, because his seed abideth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is begotten of God.

¹⁴ We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not abideth in death.

⁷ Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is begotten of God, and knoweth God.

¹⁴ And we have beheld and bear witness that the Father hath sent the Son `to be' the Saviour of the world.

¹⁵ Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God.

⁶⁹ And we have believed and know that thou art the Holy One of God.
