1 John 2:3-4
Keeping God’s Commandments
2:3 Now by this we know that we have come to know God: if we keep his commandments.
2:4 The one who says “I have come to know God” and yet does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in such a person.
1 John 3:22
3:22 and
whatever we ask we receive from him, because
we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing to him.
1 John 5:2-3
5:2 By this
we know that we love the children of God: whenever we love God and obey his commandments.
5:3 For
this is the love of God:
that we keep his commandments.
And his commandments do not weigh us down,
1 John 3:24
3:24 And the person who keeps his commandments resides
in God,
and God
in him. Now by this
we know that God
resides in us: by the Spirit he has given us.
