Exegesis
The first hina {ἵνα | hí-na} introduces purpose, followed by a hoti {ὅτι | hó-ti} content clause that states what the readers are meant to believe: Iesous estin ho christos ho huios tou theou {Ἰησοῦς ἐστιν ὁ χριστὸς ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ | Iēsoûs é-stin ho khristós ho huios tou theou}. The repeated article before christos and huios gives each title distinct weight, emphasizing a twofold confession rather than a loose repetition.
In context — John 20:31
These things have been set down so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God , and so that, by believing, you may have life in His name.
