By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
All Commentaries on 1 John 5:2 Go To 1 John 5
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
In this we know that we love the children of God, (that is, all men, and especially the faithful, who are made his adoptive children) when we love God, and keep his commandments, for these two branches of charity, the love of God and of our neighbour, are inseparable: the one is known and proved by the other. (Witham)
