1 Whosoeuer beleueth that Iesus is Christe, is borne of God: And euerie one that loueth him which begat, loueth hym also which is begotten of hym. 2 By this we knowe that we loue the chyldren of God, when we loue God, and kepe his commaundementes. 3 For this is the loue of God, that we kepe his commaundementes, and his commaundementes are not greeuous. 4 For all that is borne of God, ouercommeth the worlde. And this is the victorie that ouercommeth ye worlde, euen our fayth. 5 Who is it that ouercommeth ye worlde, but he which beleueth that Iesus is the sonne of God? 6 This Iesus Christe, is he that came by water and blood: not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the spirite that beareth witnesse, because the spirite is trueth. 7 For there are three which beare recorde in heauen, the father, the worde, and the holy ghost, and these three are one. 8 And there are three which beare recorde in earth, the spirite, and water, and blood, and these three agree in one. 1 John 5:1-8, Bishops' Bible of 1568.
