1 John 5:6 - Forerunner Commentary

1 John 5:6

4 For ^awhatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that ^bhas overcome the world—our faith.

5 Who is he who overcomes the world, but ^ahe who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

The Certainty of God’s Witness

6 This is He who came ^aby water and blood—Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood. ^bAnd it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth.

7 For there are three that bear witness¹ in heaven: the Father, ^athe Word, and the Holy Spirit; ^band these three are one.

8 And there are three that bear witness on earth: ^athe Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree as one.

9 If we receive ^athe witness of men, the witness of God is greater; ^bfor this is the witness of God which He has testified of His Son.
