Joh. 5. They are of this world, therefore speak they of this world, and this world (uz. Ignorant and ungodly men) heareth them. 6. We are of God; he which knoweth God, heareth us: he which is not of God, heareth us not. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error (namely, by the liking, and applause of the world.)

Joh. 7. Beloved, let us love one another▪ for love cometh of God: & every one that loveth, is born of God, and knoweth God: (by a special knowledge, whereby they are assured that God, the father of Christ, is their father, ⟨p. 21⟩Christ, their redeemer, the holy ghost their sanctifier.) 8. He that loveth not, knoweth not God, for God is love (uz. wholly bent to show his love and compassion to his people.) (For a proof of this,) 9. Herein was that love of God made manifest among us, because God sent that his only begotten son into the world, that we might live through him. 10. Herein is that love, not that we loved God; but that he loved us: & sent his Son to be a reconciliation for our sins.
