NEW LIVING TRANSLATION
1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has become a child of God. And everyone who loves the Father loves his children, too.
2 We know we love God’s children if we love God and obey his commandments.
3 Loving God means keeping his commandments, and his commandments are not burdensome.
4 For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith.
5 And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God.
GOOD NEWS TRANSLATION
1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Messiah is a child of God; and whoever loves a father loves his child also.
2 This is how we know that we love God's children: it is by loving God and obeying his commands.
3 For our love for God means that we obey his commands. And his commands are not too hard for us,
4 because every child of God is able to defeat the world. And we win the victory over the world by means of our faith.
5 Who can defeat the world? Only the person who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
