God Is Light, So Walk In The Light
6 If we say that we have communion with him, and yet continue to live in the Darkness, we lie, and are not living the Truth. 7 But, if our lives are lived in the Light, as God himself is in the Light, we have communion with one another, and the Blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. 8 If we say that there is no sin in us, we are deceiving ourselves, and the Truth has no place in us.
