Text:
1 John 5:1-5 "Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ
is born [begotten] of God: and every one that loveth him
that begat loveth him also that is begotten 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 grievous.
4.
For whatsoever is
born [begotten] of God overcometh the world: and this is the
victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
5.
Who is he that
overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of
God?"
