1 John 2:3-6
New Living Translation
3 And we can be sure that we know him if we obey his commandments. 4 If someone claims, “I know God,” but doesn’t obey God’s commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth. 5 But those who obey God’s word truly show how completely they love him. That is how we know we are living in him. 6 Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did.

The Test of Knowing Him
3 Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. 4 He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a (A)liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But (B)whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God [a]is perfected (C)in him. By this we know that we are in Him. 6 (D)He who says he abides in Him (E)ought himself also to walk just as He walked.
