“Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law” (1 John 3:4)
4 How Christians should love
“Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.” (1 John 4:10-11)
5 True witness in believers
“If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son” (1 John 5:9)
