Book 62 1 John
001:001 That which was from the beginning, which we have listened to, which we have seen with our own eyes, and our own hands have handled concerning the Word of Life-- 001:002 the Life was manifested, and we have seen and bear witness, and we declare unto you the Life of the Ages which was with the Father and was manifested to us-- 001:003 that which we have seen and listened to we now announce to you also, in order that you also may have fellowship in it with us, and this fellowship with us is fellowship with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. 001:004 And we write these things in order that our joy may be made complete. 001:005 This is the Message which we have heard from the Lord Jesus and now deliver to you--God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness. 001:006 If, while we are living in darkness, we profess to have fellowship with Him, we speak falsely and are not adhering to the truth. 001:007 But if we live in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, cleanses us from all sin. 001:008 If we claim to be already free from sin, we lead ourselves astray and the truth has no place in our hearts. 001:009 If we confess our sins, He is so faithful and just that He forgives us our sins and cleanses us from all unrighteousness. 001:010 If we deny that we have sinned, we make Him a liar, and His Message has no place in our hearts. 002:001 Dear children, I write thus to you in order that you may not sin. If any one sins, we have an Advocate with the Father--Jesus Christ |
