1 JOHN 5:2 — KING JAMES VERSION 2
“By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.”
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments — the test of love for the brotherhood is love for the Father combined with obedience (tēreō entolē). Love is verified through ethical alignment. Both elements are required: affection and obedience.
