8 And G2532 there are G1526 three G5140 that bear witness G3140 in G1722 earth, G1093 the Spirit, G4151 and G2532 the water, G5204 and G2532 the blood: G129 and G2532 these three G5140 agree G1526 in G1519 one. G1520
And G1161 as they G846 were eating, G2068 Jesus G2424 took G2983 bread, G740 and G2532 blessed G2127 it, and brake G2806 it, and G2532 gave G1325 it to the disciples, G3101 and G2532 said, G2036 Take, G2983 eat; G5315 this G5124 is G2076 my G3450 body. G4983 And G2532 he took G2983 the cup, G4221 and G2532 gave thanks, G2168 and gave G1325 it to them, G846 saying, G3004 Drink ye G4095 all G3956 of G1537 it; G846 For G1063 this G5124 is G2076 my G3450 blood G129 of the new G2537 testament, G1242 which G3588 is shed G1632 for G4012 many G4183 for G1519 the remission G859 of sins. G266
The like figure G499 whereunto G3739 even baptism G908 doth G4982 also G2532 now G3568 save G4982 us G2248 (not G3756 the putting away G595 of the filth G4509 of the flesh, G4561 but G235 the answer G1906 of a good G18 conscience G4893 toward G1519 God,) G2316 by G1223 the resurrection G386 of Jesus G2424 Christ: G5547
For G1063 many G4183 bare false witness G5576 against G2596 him, G846 but G2532 their witness G3141 agreed G2258 not G2470 G3756 together. G2258
But G1161 when G3752 the Comforter G3875 is come, G2064 whom G3739 I G1473 will send G3992 unto you G5213 from G3844 the Father, G3962 even the Spirit G4151 of truth, G225 which G3739 proceedeth G1607 from G3844 the Father, G3962 he G1565 shall testify G3140 of G4012 me: G1700
And G2532 suddenly G869 there came G1096 a sound G2279 from G1537 heaven G3772 as G5618 of a rushing G5342 mighty G972 wind, G4157 and G2532 it filled G4137 all G3650 the house G3624 where G3757 they were G2258 sitting. G2521 And G2532 there appeared G3700 unto them G846 cloven G1266 tongues G1100 like as G5616 of fire, G4442 and G5037 it sat G2523 upon G1909 each G1538 G1520 of them. G846 And G2532 they were G4130 all G537 filled G4130 with the Holy G40 Ghost, G4151 and G2532 began G756 to speak with G2980 other G2087 tongues, G1100 as G2531 the Spirit G4151 gave G1325 them G846 utterance. G669
And G2532 to this G5129 agree G4856 the words G3056 of the prophets; G4396 as G2531 it is written, G1125
For G1063 it is impossible G102 for those who were once G530 enlightened, G5461 and G5037 have tasted G1089 of the heavenly G2032 gift, G1431 and G2532 were made G1096 partakers G3353 of the Holy G40 Ghost, G4151
Wherefore G1352 Jesus G2424 also, G2532 that G2443 he might sanctify G37 the people G2992 with G1223 his own G2398 blood, G129 suffered G3958 without G1854 the gate. G4439
This G3778 is G2076 he that came G2064 by G1223 water G5204 and G2532 blood, G129 even Jesus G2424 Christ; G5547 not G3756 by G1722 water G5204 only, G3440 but G235 by G1722 water G5204 and G2532 blood. G129 And G2532 it is G2076 the Spirit G4151 that beareth witness, G3140 because G3754 the Spirit G4151 is G2076 truth. G225 For G3754 there are G1526 three G5140 that bear record G3140 in G1722 heaven, G3772 the Father, G3962 the Word, G3056 and G2532 the Holy G40 Ghost: G4151 and G2532 these G3778 three G5140 are G1526 one.

Commentary on 1 John 5 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 5
In this chapter the apostle asserts,
1Jo 5:1-5
1Jo 5:6-9
The faith of the Christian believer (or the believer in Christ) being thus mighty and victorious, it had need to be well founded, to be furnished with unquestionable celestial evidence concerning the divine mission, authority, and office of the Lord Jesus; and it is so; he brings his credentials along with him, and he brings them in a way by which he came and in the witness that attends him.
1Jo 5:10-13
In those words we may observe,
1Jo 5:14-17
Here we have,
1Jo 5:18-21
Here we have,
