My little children
, these things
write I
unto you
, that
ye sin
not
. And
if
any man
sin
, we have
an advocate
with
the Father
, Jesus
Christ
the righteous
:
And he
is
the propitiation
for
our
sins
: and
not
for
ours
only
, but
also
for
the sins of the whole
world
.
And hereby
we do know
that
we know
him
, if
we keep
his
commandments
.
He that saith, I know
him
, and
keepeth
not
his
commandments
, is
a liar
, and
the truth
is
not
in
him
.
But whoso
keepeth
his
word
, in
him
verily
is
the love
of God
perfected
: hereby
know we
that
we are
in
him
.
He that saith he abideth
in
him
ought
himself
also
so
to walk
, even as
he
walked
.
Brethren, I write
no
new
commandment
unto you
, but
an old
commandment
which
ye had
from
the beginning
. The old
commandment
is
the word
which
ye have heard
from
the beginning
.
Again, a new
commandment
I write
unto you
, which thing
is
true
in
him
and
in
you
: because
the darkness
is past
, and
the true
light
now
shineth
.
He that saith he is
in
the light
, and
hateth
his
brother
, is
in
darkness
even until
now
.
He that loveth his
brother
abideth
in
the light
, and
there is
none
occasion of stumbling
in
him
.
But he that hateth
his
brother
is
in
darkness
, and
walketh
in
darkness
, and
knoweth
not
whither
he goeth
, because
that darkness
hath blinded
his
eyes
.
I write unto you
, little children
, because
your sins
are forgiven
you
for
his
name's
sake
.
I write unto you
, fathers
, because
ye have known
him that is from
the beginning
. I write
unto you
, young men
, because
ye have overcome
the wicked one
. I write
unto you
, little children
, because
ye have known
the Father
.
I have written unto you
, fathers
, because
ye have known
him that is from
the beginning
. I have written
unto you
, young men
, because
ye are
strong
, and
the word
of God
abideth
in
you
, and
ye have overcome
the wicked one
.
Love not
the world
, neither
the things that are in
the world
. If
any man
love
the world
, the love
of the Father
is
not
in
him
.
For all
that is in
the world
, the lust
of the flesh
, and
the lust
of the eyes
, and
the pride
of life
, is
not
of
the Father
, but
is
of
the world
.
And the world
passeth away
, and
the lust
thereof
: but
he that doeth
the will
of God
abideth
for
ever
.
Little children, it is
the last
time
: and
as
ye have heard
that
antichrist
shall come
, even
now
are there
many
antichrists
; whereby
we know
that
it is
the last
time
.
They went out from
us
, but
they were
not
of
us
; for
if
they had been
of
us
, they would
no doubt have continued
with
us
: but
they went out , that
they might be made manifest
that
they were
not
all
of
us
.
But ye
have
an unction
from
the Holy One
, and
ye know
all things
.
I have not
written
unto you
because
ye know
not
the truth
, but
because
ye know
it
, and
that
no
lie
is
of
the truth
.
Who is
a liar
but
he that denieth
that
Jesus
is
the Christ
? He
is
antichrist
, that denieth
the Father
and
the Son
.
Whosoever denieth
the Son
, the same hath
not
the Father
: (but) he that acknowledgeth
the Son
hath
the Father
also
.
Let that therefore
abide
in
you
, which
ye
have heard
from
the beginning
. If
that which
ye have heard
from
the beginning
shall remain
in
you
, ye
also
shall continue
in
the Son
, and
in
the Father
.
And this
is
the promise
that
he
hath promised
us
, even eternal
life
.
These things have I written
unto you
concerning
them that seduce
you
.
But the anointing
which
ye
have received
of
him
abideth
in
you
, and
ye need
not
that
any man
teach
you
: but
as
the same
anointing
teacheth
you
of
all things
, and
is
truth
, and
is
no
lie
, and
even as
it hath taught
you
, ye shall abide
in
him
.
And now
, little children
, abide
in
him
; that
, when
he shall appear
, we may have
confidence
, and
not
be ashamed
before
him
at
his
coming
.
If ye know
that
he is
righteous
, ye know
that
every one
that doeth
righteousness
is born
of
him
.
