My little children, I write these things to you so that ye may not sin. And if any man does sin, we have an advocate with the Father--righteous Jesus Christ.

He who says, I know him, and does not keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in this man.

But whoever keeps his word, truly in this man the love of God is fully perfected. By this we know that we are in him.

He who claims to abide in him he also ought so to walk just as that man walked.

I write to you, fathers, because ye have known him from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because ye have overcome evil. I write to you, children, because ye know the Father.

I wrote to you, fathers, because ye have know him from the beginning. I wrote to you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and ye have overcome evil.

Love not the world, nor the things in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

Every man who denies the Son, also does not have the Father.

And for you, the anointing that ye received from him abides in you, and ye have no need that any man teach you, but as the same anointing teaches you about all things, and is TRUE and is no lie, and just as it taught you, ye will a

If ye know that he is righteous, know ye that every man doing righteousness has been begotten of him.

And every man who has this hope in him purifies himself, just as that man is pure.

Every man doing sin also does lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.

And ye know that that man was made known so that he might take up our sins. And in him is no sin.

Every man abiding in him does not sin. Every man who is sinning has not seen him, nor has known him.

Little children, let no man lead you astray. He who is doing righteousness is righteous, just as that man is righteous.

Every man who has been begotten of God is not doing sin, because his seed abides in him, and he cannot sin, because he has been begotten of God.

By this the children of God are visible, and the children of the devil. Every man not doing righteousness is not of God, and he who is not loving his brother.

Every man hating his brother is a man-killer. And ye know that no man-killer has eternal life abiding in him.

By this we know love, because that man laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.

Beloved, we should love each other. Because love is of God, and every man who loves has been begotten of God, and knows God.

No man has ever seen God. If we love each other, God abides in us, and his love is in us, having been fully perfected.

By this love has been fully perfected with us, so that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because just as that man is, we also are in this world.

If any man says, I love God, and hates his brother, he is a liar. For he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

Every man who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been begotten from God, and every man who loves him who begot, also loves him who has been begotten from him.

If we accept the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater. Because this is the testimony of God that he has testified about his Son.

If any man may see his brother sinning a sin not toward death, he will ask, and he will give life to him, to those not sinning toward death. There is sin toward death. I do not say that he should make request about that.

We know that every man who has been begotten from God does not sin, but he who was begotten from God keeps himself, and the evil does not touch him.
