1 John 2:5-7

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵ But he that keepeth his word, in him in very deed the charity of God is perfected; and by this we know that we are in him.

⁶ He that saith he abideth in him, ought himself also to walk, even as he walked.

⁷ Dearly beloved, I write not a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you have heard.
