1 John 5:6-9

Testimony Concerning the Son of God

And v the Spirit is the one who testifies, because w the Spirit is the truth. 7 For there are three that testify: 8 the Spirit and the water and the blood; and these three agree. 9 x If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater, for this is the testimony of God y that he has borne concerning his Son.
