This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.

5:1 Faith and love overcome the world

5Everyone who believes that Yeshua is the messiah has been reborn in God, and everyone who loves the father who gave birth to us, also loves the son that he gave birth to. 2We can know when we love God’s children: whenever we love God and obey his commands, 3because the definition of loving God[ref] is obeying his commands and his commands are not a big strain on us 4because everyone who’s been reborn in God is overcoming the world. 5So who can overcome the world? Only the person who believes that Yeshua is God’s son.

5:6 God’s testimony about Yeshua

6Yeshua the messiah is the one who was born by water and blood and spirit—not by water only,[ref] but by water and by blood 7because there are three that testify: 8the spirit, the water, and the blood, and these three come together into one. 9If we accept testimonies from people, then God’s testimony is better, because God’s testimony is about his son. 10Any person that believes that Yeshua is God’s son has internalised God’s testimony, but anyone who doesn’t believe in God calls him a liar because they have not believed the testimony of God himself about his son. 11And this is the testimony: that God gave eternal life to us[ref] and this life is in his son. 12Anyone who has the son has life, but anyone who doesn’t have the God’s son, doesn’t have eternal life.

5:13 Living without ending

13I wrote these things to you so that you all could know that you have eternal life, that is the ones believed in the name and authority of God’s son. 14And so we have confidence in God that if we request anything according to his will, he hears us 15whatever we’re requesting, and we know that we’ll receive what we requested.

16If anyone sees a fellow believer committing a forgivable sin, then that person should ask God on their behalf and God will give life to that fellow believer. (But there is a sin that always results in death and I’m not suggesting that we should ask in that case.) 17All disobedience is sin, but there are sins that don’t necessarily lead to death.

18We know that everyone who’s been reborn into God doesn’t keep sinning, but the messiah who was born from God watches over them and so the evil one can’t touch them.

19We know that we belong to God and that the whole word is under the control of the evil one.

20We know that God’s son has come and helped our minds so that we could know the true one, and we are in the true one and also in his son, Yeshua the messiah—the true God and eternal life itself.

21You new believers, don’t honour idols.
