1 John 2:3-6
Wycliffe Bible
3 And in this thing we know, that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4 He that saith that he knoweth God, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and truth is not in him.
5 But the charity of God is perfect verily in him, that keepeth his word [Forsooth who keepeth his word, verily in him is perfect charity]. In this thing we know, that we be in him, if we be perfect in him.
6 He that saith, that he dwelleth in him, he oweth to walk, as he walked.

Love and Hatred for Fellow Believers
3 We know(A) that we have come to know him(B) if we keep his commands.(C) 4 Whoever says, “I know him,”(D) but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person.(E) 5 But if anyone obeys his word,(F) love for God[a] is truly made complete in them.(G) This is how we know(H) we are in him: 6 Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.(I)
