Verse 1. Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ.

The history of apostolic preaching given by the sacred penmen shows that the burden of their message was to induce belief in God's Son.

If we love the father by whom we are begotten and have thus become his children, we love also all those likewise begotten.
