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:
02 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and
not for our's only, but also for the sins of the
whole world.
03 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we
keep his commandments.
04 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his
commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in
him.
05 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is
the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we
are in him.
06 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself
also so to walk, even as he walked.
07 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.
08 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.
09 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth
his brother, is in darkness even until now.
10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the
light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in
him.
11 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.
12 I write unto you, little children, because
your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
13 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.
14 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.
15 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.

16 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.
17 And the world passeth away, and the lust
thereof: but he that doeth the will of God
abideth for ever.
18 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.
19 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.
20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and
ye know all things.
21 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.
22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus
is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the
Father and the Son.
23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not
the Father: he that acknowledgeth the Son hath
the Father also.
24 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.
25 And this is the promise that he hath promised
us, even eternal life.
26 These things have I written unto you
concerning them that seduce you.
27 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.
28 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.
29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that
every one that doeth righteousness is born of
him.
