Faith in the Son of God

5 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the ·Christ [Messiah] is ·God’s child [^Lborn of/begotten by God], and whoever loves the Father also loves the ·Father’s children [^Lone born of/begotten by him]. ² ·This is how [By/In this] we know we love God’s children: when we love God and ·obey [perform; carry out] his commands. ³ ·Loving God means [^LFor this is the love of God:] ·obeying [keeping] his commands. And God’s commands are not ·too hard [burdensome] for us [Matt. 11:30],
