but he that hateth his brother is in the darkness, and walketh in the darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because the darkness hath blinded his eyes.

Whoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father; he that acknowledgeth the Son hath also the Father.

And the anointing which ye yourselves received from him abideth in you, and ye have no need that any one teach you; but as his anointing teacheth you concerning all things, and is truth, and is not a lie, even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one also that doeth righteousness hath been born of him.

Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called children of God l For this cause the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

Beloved, now are we children of God, and it hath not yet been manifested what we shall be. We know that, when it shall be manifested, we shall be like him; because we shall see him as he is.

And every one that hath this hope in Him purifieth himself, even as He is pure.

Whoever abideth in him sinneth not; whoever sinneth hath not seen him, nor known him.

Whoever hath been born of God doth not commit sin, because his seed abideth in him; and he cannot sin, because he hath been born of God.

Whoever hateth his brother is a murderer; and ye know that no murderer hath everlasting life abiding in him.

But whoever hath this worlds goods, and seeth his brother having need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

Hereby ye know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledgeth that Jesus Christ hath come in the flesh, is of God.

Beloved, let us love one another; for love is from God, and every one that loveth hath been born of God, and knoweth God;

he that loveth not hath not known God; for God is love.

In this was manifested the love of God in regard to us, that God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we may live through him.

No one hath ever seen God. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

Hereby we know that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.

And we have seen and bear witness, that the Father hath sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

And we have known and believed the love that God hath in regard to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Herein hath love been perfected with us, that we have confidence in the day of judgment; because as he is, so are we in this world.

There is no fear in love, but perfect love casteth out fear; because fear hath torment; and he that feareth is not made perfect in love.

If any one saith, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar; for he that loveth not his brother, whom he hath seen, how can he love God, whom he hath not seen?

Whoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ hath been born of God; and every one that loveth him that begat, loveth also him that hath been begotten of him.

because whatever is born of God overcometh the world; and this is the victory that hath overcome the world, even our faith.

If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God, that he hath borne witness concerning his Son.

He that believeth in the Son of God hath the witness within him; he that believeth not God hath made him a liar, because he hath not believed in the witness which God hath borne concerning his Son.

He that hath the Son hath the life; he that hath not the Son of God hath not the life.

We know that whoever hath been born of God sinneth not; but he that is born of God keepeth himself, and the Evil One toucheth him not.

And we know that the Son of God hath come, and hath given us understanding, that we may know the True One; and we are in the True One, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and everlasting life.
