'Things' in the Bible

and these things we write to you, that your joy may be full.

My little children, these things I write to you, that ye may not sin: and if any one may sin, an advocate we have with the Father, Jesus Christ, a righteous one,

Love not ye the world, nor the things in the world; if any one doth love the world, the love of the Father is not in him,

And ye have an anointing from the Holy One, and have known all things;

These things I did write to you concerning those leading you astray;

because if our heart may condemn -- because greater is God than our heart, and He doth know all things.

and whatever we may ask, we receive from Him, because His commands we keep, and the things pleasing before Him we do,

These things I did write to you who are believing in the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that life ye have age-during, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God.
