| 1 | Beloued, beleeue not euery spirit, but trie the spirits, whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. |
| 2 | Hereby know ye the spirit of God: euery spirit that confesseth that Iesus Christ is come in the flesh, is of God. |
| 3 | And euery Spirit that confesseth not that Iesus Christ is come in the flesh, is not of God: and this is that spirit of Antichrist, whereof you haue heard, that it should come, and euen now already is it in the world. |
| 4 | Ye are of God, little children, and haue ouercome them: because greater is he that is in you, then he that is in the world. |
| 5 | They are of the world: therefore speake they of the world, and the world heareth them. |
| 6 | We are of God: hee that knoweth God, heareth vs: he that is not of God heareth not vs, hereby know wee the spirit of trueth, and the spirit of errour. |
| 7 | Beloued, let vs loue one another; for loue is of God: and euery one that loueth, is borne of God and knoweth God. |
| 8 | Hee that loueth not, knoweth not God: for God is loue. |
| 9 | In this was manifested the loue of God towards vs, because that God sent his only begotten Sonne into the world, that we might liue through him. |
| 10 | Herein is loue, not that wee loued God, but that he loued vs, and sent his Sonne to be þ propitiation for our sins. |
| 11 | Beloued, if God so loued vs, wee ought also to loue one another. |
| 12 | No man hath seene God at any time. If wee loue one another, God dwelleth in vs, and his loue is perfected in vs. |
| 13 | Hereby know wee that we dwell in him and he in vs, because hee hath giuen vs of his Spirit. |
| 14 | And we haue seene, and doe testifie, that the Father sent the Sonne to be the Sauiour of the world. |
| 15 | Whosoeuer shall confesse that Iesus is the Sonne of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. |
| 16 | And we haue knowen and beleeued the loue that God hath to vs. God is loue, and hee that dwelleth in loue, dwelleth in God, and God in him. |
| 17 | Herein is our loue made perfect, that wee may haue boldnesse in the day of Iudgement, because as hee is, so are we in this world. |
| 18 | There is no feare in loue, but perfect loue casteth out feare: because feare hath torment: hee that feareth, is not made perfect in loue. |
| 19 | We loue him: because hee first loued vs. |
| 20 | If a man say, I loue God, and hateth his brother, he is a lyar. For hee that loueth not his brother whom hee hath seene, how can he loue God whom he hath not seene? |
| 21 | And this commandement haue we from him, that he who loueth God, loue his brother also. |
