1 John 2:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 [a]He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
5 [b]But he that keepeth his word, in him is the [c]love of God perfect indeed: hereby we know that we are in [d]him.
6 [e]He that saith he remaineth in him, ought even so to walk as he hath walked.
