4 Pois todo aquele que é nascido de Deus vence o mundo; e esta é a vitória que vence o mundo: a nossa fé.

5 Quem é o que vence o mundo, senão aquele que crê que Jesus é o Filho de Deus?

6 Este é aquele que veio por água e sangue: Jesus, o Cristo. Não só pela água, mas pela água e [pelo] sangue. E o Espírito é o que lhe dá testemunho, porque o Espírito é a verdade.

7 Pois são três os que dão testemunho no céu: o Pai, a Palavra, e o Espírito Santo; e estes três são um.

8 E três são os que testemunham na terra: o Espírito, a água e o sangue; e estes três estão em unidade.
