1 John 1
The Word of Life
1What was afrom the beginning, what we have bheard, what we have cseen with our eyes, what we dbeheld and etouched with our hands, concerning the fWord of Life— 2and athe life was manifested, and we have bseen and cbear witness and proclaim to you dthe eternal life, which was ewith the Father and was fmanifested to us— 3what we have aseen and bheard we proclaim to you also, so that you may also have fellowship with us; and indeed our cfellowship is with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ. 4aAnd these things we are writing, so that our bjoy may be made complete.
God Is Light
5aAnd this is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you, that bGod is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. 6aIf we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we blie and cdo not do the truth; 7but if we awalk in the Light as bHe Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and cthe blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. 8aIf we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the btruth is not in us. 9aIf we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and bto cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10aIf we say that we have not sinned, we bmake Him a liar and cHis word is not in us.
