Sharing this from the KJV in the hopes of His ministry in the knowledge of Him.
At this link is a list of extra-Biblical resources that acknowledges the disputed 1 John 5:7 as the original scripture.

If you scroll half way down this page at the link above, you will find that list. The first one cited at 200 A.D. is disputable because the actual reference only refer to the Triune God but not the actual verse, however, the second one down the list starting with 250 A.D. and so on, actually cites the portion of that verse thus proving that 1 John 5:7 actually belongs on scripture per extrabiblical writings.
Now at the top of the page, it explains why it was not found "as is" in the "Majority Texts"; and so one has to discern with His help, can we know the truth as it is supposed to be written in the scripture as is?
I believe so, but only the Lord can cause the increase.
Here's why I believe it belongs in according to scripture;
#1 To establish a word or a testimony, you need two or three witnesses.
Matthew 18:16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
2 Corinthians 13:1This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
John 8:17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
So keep that in mind when reading 1 John 5:6-9, because the question you have to ask Him is; how then can verse 9 be true if verse 7 does not exists?
1 John 5:6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. 8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. 9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son. KJV
