But he who hates his brother is in the darkness, and he goes about in the darkness, and knows not where he goes, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

If ye know that he is righteous, know ye that every man doing righteousness has been begotten of him.

Behold what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we may be called children of God. Because of this the world does not know you, because it did not know him.

And every man who has this hope in him purifies himself, just as that man is pure.

Every man abiding in him does not sin. Every man who is sinning has not seen him, nor has known him.

Every man who has been begotten of God is not doing sin, because his seed abides in him, and he cannot sin, because he has been begotten of God.

Every man hating his brother is a man-killer. And ye know that no man-killer has eternal life abiding in him.

But whoever has the world's living, and sees his brother having need, and closes his bowels from him, how does the love of God abide in him?

and every spirit that does not confess Jesus Christ has come in flesh is not of God. And this is that of the antichrist, which ye have heard that it comes, and is now in the world already.

Beloved, we should love each other. Because love is of God, and every man who loves has been begotten of God, and knows God.

No man has ever seen God. If we love each other, God abides in us, and his love is in us, having been fully perfected.

In this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us from his Spirit.

And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son, a Savior of the world.

And we know, and have believed the love that God has in us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

By this love has been fully perfected with us, so that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because just as that man is, we also are in this world.

Fear is not in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear holds punishment, and he who is afraid has not been fully perfected in love.

If any man says, I love God, and hates his brother, he is a liar. For he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

Every man who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been begotten from God, and every man who loves him who begot, also loves him who has been begotten from him.

Because everything that has been begotten from God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith.

If we accept the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater. Because this is the testimony of God that he has testified about his Son.

He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has testified about his Son.

He who has the Son has the life. He who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.

We know that every man who has been begotten from God does not sin, but he who was begotten from God keeps himself, and the evil does not touch him.

And we know that the Son of God comes, and has given us understanding, so that we may know the true. And we are in the true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the TRUE God, and the eternal life.
