¶ The .iii. Chapter.
¶ The synguler loue of God toward vs: and how we
agayne ought to loue one a nother.
A Beholde, what loue the father hath
shewed on vs, that we shuld be called note
(∧ be in dede) þe; þe; sonnes of God.
For this cause þe; worlde knoweth
you not, because it knoweth not hym. Dearely
beloued, now are we þe; sonnes of God
∧ yet it doth not appeare, what we shalbe.
But we knowe, that when it shall appeare,
we shalbe lyke him. For we shall se hym
as he is. And euery m&abar; that hath this hope
in him, pourgeth him selfe, eu&ebar; as he also is
pure. Whosoeuer commytteth synne, committeth
vnryghteousnes also, and synne is
vnryghteousnes. And ye knowe, that he appeared,
to take awaye oure synnes, and in
him is no synne. As many as byde in hym,
synne not: whosoeuer synneth, hath not sene
hym, nether knowne hym.
B Babes, let no man deceaue you. He that
doeth ryghteousnes, is ryghteous, euen as
he is ryghteous. He that c&obar;mitteth synne,
is of the deuyll: note for the deuyll synneth sence
the beginnynge. For this purpose appeared
the sonne of God, to lowse the worckes
of þe; deuyl. Whosoeuer is borne of God, synneth
not: for his seed remayneth in him, and
he c&abar;not synne, because he is borne of God.
In thys are the chyldren of God knowen,
and the chyldren of the deuyll. Whosoeuer
doeth not ryghteousnes, is not of God, nether
he that loueth not hys brother.
C For this is the tidinges, that ye hearde
from the beginninge, that ye shuld loue one
another, not as note Cayn which was of that
wicked, and slewe his brother. And wherfore
slewe he hym? Because his awne workes
were euyll, and hys brothers good. &cross2;
Maruayle not my brethr&ebar; though þe; world
hate you. We knowe, that we are tr&abar;slated
from deeth vnto lyfe, because we loue the
brethren. noteHe that loueth not hys brother,
abydeth &ibar; deeth. Whosoeuer hateth his brother,
is a m&abar; slear. And ye knowe, þt; no man
slear, hath eternall lyfe abydynge in hym.
Herby perceaue we loue: because he gaue
his lyfe for vs: ∧ we ought to geue oure liues
for the brethren. But whoso hath thys
worldes good and note seyth hys brother haue
neade: and shutteth vp his c&obar;passion from
him: how dwelleth the loue of God in hym?
My babes, let vs not loue in worde, nether
in tonge: but in dede ∧ in veritie. &cross3; Herby
we knowe, that we are of the veritie ∧ can
quyet oure hertes before hym. For yf oure
herte cond&ebar;pne vs, God is gretter th&ebar; oure
herte, and knoweth all thinges. Dearly beloued,
yf oure herte condempne vs not,
D then
haue we trust to God warde: ∧ note what soeuer
we aske we receaue of hym, because we
kepe his c&obar;maundementes, ∧ do those thinges
which are pleasinge in his syght.
And note this is hys c&obar;maundement, þt; we beleue
on the name of his sonne Iesus Christ,
and loue one another, as he gaue c&obar;maundement.
And he that kepeth hys commaundementes,
dwelleth in him, ∧ he in him, and
herby we knowe that he abydeth in vs, eu&ebar;
by the sprete which he hath geuen vs.
