1 John2:5
5 But whoso keepeth his word , in him verily is the love of God perfected : hereby know we that we are in him.
His Faith worketh by Love, Gal. 5.6. His Love is perfected, and attains its end in Obedience, whereof it is the Vital Principle, ch. 5.3. Iohn 14.15. such an efficacious governing Knowledg of him; therefore, as by the Power of the Love which it produces, subdues our Souls to the Obedience of him, is a certain Proof to us of our Union with him, ch. 5.20. and Relation to him.
