that which we have seen and heard we declare to you also, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son, Jesus Christ.

And we write these things, that our joy may be fulfilled.

My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous.

Now, little children, remain in him, that when he appears, we may have boldness, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

In this love has been made perfect among us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, even so are we in this world.

These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life.
