1 John

Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.

And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.

Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.

And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of 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.

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.

These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.

And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.

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.

Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.

Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

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.

But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.

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.

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.

And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

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.

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.

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.

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 write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name"s sake.

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.

He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.

He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.

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.

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.

He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
