May his blessing be upon us.

1 John 5 : 9 - 12
Chapter 5
| 9 | If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God which He has testified of His Son.
|
| 10 | He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son.
|
| 11 | And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.
|
| 12 | He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
|
Do not love the world or the things in the world.
The world passes away, and its desires; but he who does the will of God abides forever.
Amen.
