G1097–γινώσκω–ginōskō

Be assured that the testing of your faith leads to power of endurance.

γινώσκοντες ginōskontes “knowing”

But, idle boaster, are you willing to be taught how it is that faith apart from obedience is worthless? Take the case of Abraham our forefather.

γνῶναι, gnōnai “to come to know,”

let him know that he who brings a sinner back from his evil ways will save the man's soul from death and throw a veil over a multitude of sins.

γινωσκέτω ginōsketō “he should know”

But, above all, remember that no prophecy in Scripture will be found to have come from the prophet's own prompting;

γινώσκοντες ginōskontes “knowing”

But, above all, remember that, in the last days, men will come who make a mock at everything--men governed only by their own passions,

γινώσκοντες ginōskontes “knowing”

And by this we may know that we know Him--if we obey His commands.

γινώσκομεν ginōskomen “we know”ἐγνώκαμεν egnōkamen “we have come to know”

He who professes to know Him, and yet does not obey His commands, is a liar, and the truth has no place in his heart.

ἔγνωκα egnōka “I have known”

But whoever obeys His Message, in him love for God has in very deed reached perfection. By this we can know that we are in Him.

γινώσκομεν ginōskomen “we know”

I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who has existed from the very beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the Evil one. I have written to you, children, because you know the Father.

ἐγνώκατε egnōkate “you have known”ἐγνώκατε egnōkate “you have known”

I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has existed from the very beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong and God's Message still has a place in your hearts, and you have overcome the Evil one.

ἐγνώκατε egnōkate “you have known”

Dear children, the last hour has come; and as you once heard that there was to be an anti-Christ, so even now many anti-Christs have appeared. By this we may know that the last hour has come.

γινώσκομεν ginōskomen “we know”

Since you know that He is righteous, be assured also that the man who habitually acts righteously is a child of His.

γινώσκετε ginōskete “you know”

See what marvellous love the Father has bestowed upon us--that we should be called God's children: and that is what we are. For this reason the world does not recognize us--because it has not known Him.

γινώσκει ginōskei “knows”ἔγνω egnō “it knew”

No one who continues in union with Him lives in sin: no one who lives in sin has seen Him or knows Him.

ἔγνωκεν egnōken “has he known”

We know what love is--through Christ's having laid down His life on our behalf; and in the same way we ought to lay down our lives for our brother men.

ἐγνώκαμεν egnōkamen “we have known”

And in this way we shall come to know that we are loyal to the truth, and shall satisfy our consciences in His presence

γνωσόμεθα gnōsometha “we will know”

in whatever matters our hearts condemn us--because God is greater than our hearts and knows everything.

γινώσκει ginōskei “He knows”

The man who obeys His commands continues in union with God, and God continues in union with him; and through His Spirit whom He has given us we can know that He continues in union with us.

γινώσκομεν ginōskomen “we know”

The test by which you may recognize the Spirit of God is that every spirit which acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come as man is from God,

γινώσκετε ginōskete “you know”

The man who is beginning to know God listens to us, but he who is not a child of God does not listen to us. By this test we can distinguish the Spirit of truth from the spirit of error.

γινώσκων ginōskōn “knowing”γινώσκομεν ginōskomen “we know”

Dear friends, let us love one another; for love has its origin in God, and every one who loves has become a child of God and is beginning to know God.

γινώσκει ginōskei “knows”

He who is destitute of love has never had any knowledge of God; because God is love.

ἔγνω egnō “has known”

We can know that we are continuing in union with Him and that He is continuing in union with us, by the fact that He has given us a portion of His Spirit.

γινώσκομεν ginōskomen “we know”

And, as for us, we know the love which God has for us, and we confide in it. God is love, and he who continues to love continues in union with God, and God continues in union with him.

ἐγνώκαμεν egnōkamen “have come to know”

The fact that we love God Himself, and obey His commands, is a proof that we love God's children.

γινώσκομεν ginōskomen “we know”
