That saith

Whoever says, "I know Him," but does not practice obedience to His commands is a liar, and there is no truth in his heart;

If we say "We have fellowship with Him," and yet live in darkness, we are lying and not practicing the truth.

To walk

But if we continue to live in the light, just as He is in the light, we have unbroken fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son continues to cleanse us from every sin.

Put on my yoke, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls,

For I have set you an example, in order that you too may practice what I have done to you.

You must follow my example, just as I myself am following Christ's.

and practice living in love, just as Christ loved you too and gave Himself for you as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Indeed, it was to this kind of living that you were called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example that you might follow His footsteps.
