Now this we have heard from Him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.

though I write it again as a new commandment, which is truth in Him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.

Now he that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is still in darkness:

Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that an antichrist will come, there are even now many antichrists, whereby we know that it is the last time.

And now, little children, abide, I say, in Him; that, when He shall appear, we may have confidence, and may not be ashamed before Him at his coming.

Beloved, we are now the children of God, but it doth not yet appear what we shall be: we know however, that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is.

Now if we admit the testimony of men, sure the testimony of God is greater: and this is the testimony of God, which He hath testified concerning his Son.
