1 John 5:2

Read in context

1 John 5:1–4 · Berean Standard Bible

1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves those born of Him.

2 By this we know that we love the children of God: when we love God and keep His commandments.

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

4 because everyone born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world: our faith.
