videte qualem caritatem dedit nobis Pater ut filii Deinominemur et sumus propter hoc mundus non novit nos quia nonnovit eum

3:2
carissimi nunc filii Dei sumus et nondum apparuit quiderimus scimus quoniam cum apparuerit similes ei erimus quoniamvidebimus eum sicuti est

3:3
et omnis qui habet spem hanc in eo sanctificat se sicut etille sanctus est

3:4
omnis qui facit peccatum et iniquitatem facit et peccatumest iniquitas

3:5
et scitis quoniam ille apparuit ut peccata tolleret etpeccatum in eo non est

3:6
omnis qui in eo manet non peccat omnis qui peccat non viditeum nec cognovit eum

3:7
filioli nemo vos seducat qui facit iustitiam iustus estsicut et ille iustus est

3:8
qui facit peccatum ex diabolo est quoniam ab initio diaboluspeccat in hoc apparuit Filius Dei ut dissolvat opera diaboli

3:9
omnis qui natus est ex Deo peccatum non facit quoniam semenipsius in eo manet et non potest peccare quoniam ex Deo natusest

3:10
in hoc manifesti sunt filii Dei et filii diaboli omnis quinon est iustus non est de Deo et qui non diligit fratrem suum

3:11
quoniam haec est adnuntiatio quam audistis ab initio utdiligamus alterutrum

3:12
non sicut Cain ex maligno erat et occidit fratrem suum etpropter quid occidit eum quoniam opera eius maligna erantfratris autem eius iusta

3:13
nolite mirari fratres si odit vos mundus

3:17
qui habuerit substantiam mundi et viderit fratrem suumnecesse habere et clauserit viscera sua ab eo quomodo caritasDei manet in eo

3:18
filioli non diligamus verbo nec lingua sed opere etveritate

3:19

3:20
quoniam si reprehenderit nos cor maior est Deus cordenostro et novit omnia

3:21
carissimi si cor non reprehenderit nos fiduciam habemus adDeum

3:22
et quodcumque petierimus accipiemus ab eo quoniam mandataeius custodimus et ea quae sunt placita coram eo facimus

3:23
et hoc est mandatum eius ut credamus in nomine Filii eiusIesu Christi et diligamus alterutrum sicut dedit mandatum nobis

3:24
et qui servat mandata eius in illo manet et ipse in eo etin hoc scimus quoniam manet in nobis de Spiritu quem nobisdedit

003:001
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

003:002
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

003:003
And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

003:004
Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.

003:005
And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.

003:006
Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.

003:007
Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

003:008
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

003:009
Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

003:010
In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

003:011
For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

003:012
Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.

003:013
Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.

003:014
We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.

003:015
Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.

003:016
Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

003:017
But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

003:018
My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

003:019
And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

003:020
For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.

003:021
Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.

003:022
And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

003:023
And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

003:024
And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
