Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
Now we're absolutely convinced that you know everything, and you don't need anyone to even ask you questions. This is how we know for real that you came from God.
When someone knows you that deeply without you saying a word, that's divine love right there.
