1 Peter 3:6just as Sarah obeyed Abraham and called him lord. And you are her children if you do what is right and refuse to give way to fear.1 Peter 3:7Husbands, in the same way, treat your wives with consideration as a delicate vessel, and with honor as fellow heirs of the gracious gift of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered.1 Peter 3:8Finally, all of you, be like-minded and sympathetic, love as brothers, be tenderhearted and humble.1 Peter 3:9Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.1 Peter 3:10For, “Whoever would love life and see good days must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from deceitful speech.1 Peter 3:11He must turn from evil and do good; he must seek peace and pursue it.1 Peter 3:14But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. “Do not fear what they fear; do not be shaken.”1 Peter 4:2Consequently, he does not live out his remaining time on earth for human passions, but for the will of God.2 Peter 1:5For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith virtue; and to virtue, knowledge;2 Peter 1:6and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness;2 Peter 1:7and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.2 Peter 1:8For if you possess these qualities and continue to grow in them, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.2 Peter 1:9But whoever lacks these traits is nearsighted to the point of blindness, having forgotten that he has been cleansed from his past sins.1 John 2:3By this we can be sure that we have come to know Him: if we keep His commandments.1 John 2:4If anyone says, “I know Him,” but does not keep His commandments, he is a liar, and the truth is not in him.1 John 2:5But if anyone keeps His word, the love of God has been truly perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him:1 John 2:6Whoever claims to abide in Him must walk as Jesus walked.1 John 2:10Whoever loves his brother remains in the light, and there is no cause of stumbling in him.1 John 2:11But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness. He does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.1 John 2:24As for you, let what you have heard from the beginning remain in you. If it does, you will also remain in the Son and in the Father.1 John 2:29If you know that He is righteous, you also know that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of Him.1 John 3:3And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as Christ is pure.1 John 3:6No one who remains in Him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has seen Him or known Him.1 John 3:7Little children, let no one deceive you: The one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as Christ is righteous.1 John 3:9Anyone born of God refuses to practice sin, because God’s seed abides in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.1 John 3:10By this the children of God are distinguished from the children of the devil: Anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is anyone who does not love his brother.1 John 3:11This is the message you have heard from the beginning: We should love one another.1 John 3:14We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love our brothers. The one who does not love remains in death.1 John 3:17If anyone with earthly possessions sees his brother in need, but withholds his compassion from him, how can the love of God abide in him?1 John 3:18Little children, let us love not in word and speech, but in action and truth.1 John 3:19And by this we will know that we belong to the truth, and will assure our hearts in His presence:1 John 3:20Even if our hearts condemn us, God is greater than our hearts, and He knows all things.1 John 3:21Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God,1 John 3:22and we will receive from Him whatever we ask, because we keep His commandments and do what is pleasing in His sight.1 John 3:23And this is His commandment: that we should believe in the name of His Son, Jesus Christ, and we should love one another just as He commanded us.1 John 3:24Whoever keeps His commandments remains in God, and God in him. And by this we know that He remains in us: by the Spirit He has given us.1 John 4:4You, little children, are from God and have overcome them, because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.1 John 4:5They are of the world. That is why they speak from the world’s perspective, and the world listens to them.1 John 4:6We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. That is how we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of deception.1 John 4:7Beloved, let us love one another, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.1 John 4:8Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.1 John 4:9This is how God’s love was revealed among us: God sent His one and only Son into the world, so that we might live through Him.1 John 4:10And love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.1 John 4:11Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.1 John 4:12No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God remains in us, and His love is perfected in us.1 John 4:13By this we know that we remain in Him, and He in us: He has given us of His Spirit.1 John 4:14And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent His Son to be the Savior of the world.1 John 4:15If anyone confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.1 John 4:16And we have come to know and believe the love that God has for us. God is love; whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in him.1 John 4:17In this way, love has been perfected among us, so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment; for in this world we are just like Him.1 John 4:18There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear involves punishment. The one who fears has not been perfected in love.1 John 4:19We love because He first loved us.1 John 4:20If anyone says, “I love God,” but hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.1 John 4:21And we have this commandment from Him: Whoever loves God must love his brother as well.1 John 5:1Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves those born of Him.1 John 5:2By this we know that we love the children of God: when we love God and keep His commandments.1 John 5:3For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome,1 John 5:4because everyone born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world: our faith.1 John 5:5Who then overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.1 John 5:10Whoever believes in the Son of God has this testimony within him; whoever does not believe God has made Him out to be a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given about His Son.
