1 JOHN 5:20 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.”
And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we know him who is true. And we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life — the coming (hēkō) of the Son established access to divine knowledge. Understanding (dianoia) permits recognition of the true God. The final identification of Christ as the true God (theos) is explicitly christological.
