but if we walk in the light, as he is himself in the light, we have communion with each other, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

He who saith that he abideth in him, ought as he walked, even so himself to walk.

My dear children, it is the last hour; and as ye have heard that antichrist is coming, even now there are many antichrists: by which we know it is the last hour.

But the unction which ye have received from him abideth in you; and ye need not that any person should instruct you. But as the same unction teacheth you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie; and as it hath taught you, abide in him.

Beloved, now are we the children of God, and it is not yet evident what we shall be: but we know that when he shall appear, we shall be like him; because we shall see him as he is.

And every one who hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

My dear children, let no man deceive you: he who doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous:

Not as Cain, who was of the wicked one, and slew his brother: and wherefore did he slay him? Because his own works were wicked, and those of his brother righteous.

And whatsoever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments, and do the things which are pleasing in his sight.

And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

They are of the world, therefore speak they as of the world, and the world heareth them.

By this is his love towards us perfected, that we might have confidence at the day of judgment; because as he is, so are we in this world.

And this is the confidence that we have towards him, that whatsoever we ask according to his will, he heareth us.

And if we know that he heareth us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we receive the petitions, which we have requested, from him.
