It is what we have seen and heard that we are announcing to you, in order that you also may have partnership with us; and our partnership is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.

And he is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.

Whoever denies the Son, the same has not the Father; but he who confesses the Son has the Father also. As for you, let what you have heard from the beginning abide in you.

If what you have heard from the beginning is abiding in you, you also will ever abide in the Son and in the Father.

If you know that he is righteous you know also that every one who habitually practices righteousness has been born of him.

Every one who commits sin commits also lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.

If God so loved us, beloved, we also ought to love one another.

And we have this command from God: HE WHO LOVES GOD IS TO LOVE HIS BROTHER ALSO.

Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God; and every one who loves the Father, loves him also who is the Father's Child.
