That which was from the beginning, declare we unto you; which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the word of life.

For the life appeared: and we have seen, and bear witness, and show unto you that eternal life, which was with the father, and appeared unto us.

That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye may have fellowship with us, and that our fellowship may be with the father, and his son Jesus Christ.

See that ye love not the world, nor the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the father is not in him.

Dearly beloved, now are we the sons of God, and yet it doth not appear what we shall be. But we know that when it shall appear, we shall be like him. For we shall see him as he is.

All that abide in him, sin not: And all that sin hath not seen him, neither hath known him.

All that are born of God do no sin, for his seed abideth in them, and they cannot sin, because they be born of God.

No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfect in us.

And we have seen and do testify that the father hath sent his son, which is the saviour of the world.

If a man say, "I love God," and yet hate his brother, he is a liar. For how can he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, love God whom he hath not seen?

If any man see his brother sin a sin that is not to death, let him ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death, for which say I not that a man should pray.
