1John 1
1
That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen
with our eyes, that which we beheld, and our hands handled, concerning the Word of
life
2
(and the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you
the life, the eternal [life], which was with the Father, and was manifested to us);
3
that which we have seen and heard declare we to you also, that you also may have fellowship
with us: yea, and our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ:
4
and these things we write, that our joy may be made full.
5
And this is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God
is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6
If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and do
not the truth:
7
but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another,
and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.
8
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to
cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
