1 John 2:1

“Little children, I am with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, now I also say to you, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’

“And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate, that He may be with you forever;

“And which one of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? They killed those who had previously announced the coming of the Righteous One, whose betrayers and murderers you have now become;

For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.

I do not write these things to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children.

My children, with whom I am again in labor until Christ is formed in you—

And these things we are writing, so that our joy may be made complete.

I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven you for His name’s sake.

And now, little children, abide in Him, so that when He is manifested, we may have confidence and not shrink away from Him in shame at His coming.

Little children, let no one deceive you. The one who does righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.

Little children, let us not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and truth.

You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.

All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not leading to death.

Little children, guard yourselves from idols.

I have no greater joy than this, to hear that my children are walking in the truth.

Jesus Christ Our Advocate
