Strong's King James
But whoever keeps His Word (Logos), the love (agape) of the Elohim has been truly perfected in him. By this, we truly know that we are in Him.
The F.O.G
[5] But when someone faithfully follows God's word, His love reaches its full, mature expression in their life. This is how we know we're truly living in Him, connected like branches to a vine.But someone who keeps His Divine Expression can be assured that the sacrificial love of יהוה (Yahweh) has been perfected in them. By this, we can be confident that we are living in union with Him.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and whoever may keep his word, truly in him the love of God hath been perfected; in this we know that in him we are.
Young's Literal Translation
