³ This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his commandments.

¹⁵ If you love me, keep my commandments.

¹⁰ If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and remain in his love.

³ For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.

¹³ By this we know that we remain in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.

¹⁴ You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you.

¹⁹ We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.

²² and whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.

²³ This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he commanded.

²⁴ He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.

¹⁹ And by this we know that we are of the truth, and persuade our hearts before him,

⁴ One who says, "I know him," and doesn't keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth isn't in him.

⁵ But whoever keeps his word, God's love has most assuredly been perfected in him. This is how we know that we are in him:

⁶ he who says he remains in him ought himself also to walk just like he walked.

¹ Finally then, brothers, we beg and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, that you abound more and more.

² For you know what charge we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

²¹ One who has my commandments, and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him."

²² Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, "Lord, what has happened that you are about to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?"

²³ Jesus answered him, "If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our home with him.

²⁴ He who doesn't love me doesn't keep my words. The word which you hear isn't mine, but the Father's who sent me.

⁴⁶ "Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and don't do the things which I say?

¹⁴ Blessed are those who do his commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter in by the gates into the city.

¹⁴ We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn't love his brother remains in death.

⁹ Having been made perfect, he became to all of those who obey him the author of eternal salvation,

¹¹ He shall see of the travail of his soul, [and] shall be satisfied: by the knowledge of himself shall my righteous servant justify many; and he shall bear their iniquities.

³² I run in the path of your commandments, For you have set my heart free.

⁶ Then I wouldn't be disappointed, When I consider all of your commandments.

³ This is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and him whom you sent, Jesus Christ.

⁶ seeing it is God who said, "Light will shine out of darkness," who has shone in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
