1 John 2:3 Douay-Rheims

And by this we know that we have known him, if we keep his commandments.

George Leo Haydock

1774–1849 Catholic

We have known him, if we keep his commandments. He speaks of that practical knowledge by love and affection, which can be only proved by our keeping his commandments; and without which we cannot be said to know God, as we should. (Challoner)
