1 JOHN 5:12 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.”
I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God that you may know (eidēte) that you have eternal life — the literary purpose (graphō) is to produce knowledge (oida) of actual possession. The readers are believers (pisteuō); the name (onoma) of the Son embodies his redemptive power. Certainty of life is the epistle's goal.
