1 The people who believe that Jesus is the Messiah are God’s children. Anyone who loves the Father also loves the Father’s children.
2 How do we know that we love God’s children? We know because we love God and we obey his commands.
3 Loving God means obeying his commands. And God’s commands are not too hard for us,
4 because everyone who is a child of God has the power to win against the world.
