1 John 2:3-6

3 (A)And by this we know that we have come to (B)know Him, if we (C)keep His commandments. 4 The one who says, “(D)I have come to (E)know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a (F)liar, and (G)the truth is not in him; 5 but whoever (H)keeps His word, truly in him the (I)love of God has been perfected. (J)By this we know that we are in Him: 6 the one who says he (K)abides in Him (L)ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked.

1 John 2:3-6
International Standard Version
3 This is how we can be sure that we have come to know him: if we continually keep his commandments. 4 The person who says, “I have come to know him,” but does not continually keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth has no place in that person. 5 But whoever continually keeps his commandments is the kind of person in whom God’s love has truly been perfected. This is how we can be sure that we are in union with God:[a] 6 The one who says that he abides in him must live the same way he himself lived.
