Bible Study 1 John 5:5-12

1 John 5:5-12

King James Version (KJV)


5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.
10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

1 John 5:5-12

New American Standard Bible (NASB)


5 Who is the one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? 6 This is the One who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. 7 For there are three that testify: 8 the Spirit and the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement. 9 If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for the testimony of God is this, that He has testified concerning His Son. 10 The one who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself; the one who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning His Son. 11 And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.

These are my thoughts please share yours.

5 We can overcome all the world can throw at us by believing Jesus is the Son of God, this is the truth. Faith in the truth can give us what we need to get thru all that happens. All we may go thru will only be for a period and life with Christ is forever.

6 We are all born by water thru being born physically but thru Christ's blood we can be born of the Spirit.

7 In Jewish law all that needed to be found for a testimony to be consider true was two people.

8 Christ miraclious birth showed who He is. Christ death showed who He is. The Spirit we are given when we come to faith shows who He still is.

9 Men can give false testimony and lie but God is true always so He will never lie. God's word says who Jesus is and God's word is always true.

10 All of us who came to Christ have a testimony of coming to Jesus and how Jesus has used us since then. Anyone that rejects the gospel and Christ rejects the truth and rejects God's word and there by rejecting God.

11 Our testiomony will last because thru Christ we have eternal life.

12 Christ rose from death and He will raise us from our death to life in Him because of our faith in Him. However, if we were not to believe we would not have life in Him but have to face Him in judgement.
