'Us' in the Bible

and the life was revealed, and we have seen and testify and announce to you the eternal life which was with the Father and was revealed to us--

what we have seen and heard, we announce to you also, in order that you also may have fellowship with us, and indeed our fellowship [is] with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.

But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.

If we say that we do not have sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, so that he will forgive us [our] sins and will cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us. But [they went out], in order that it might be shown that all of them are not of us.

And this is the promise which he himself promised us: eternal life.

See what sort of love the Father has given to us: that we should be called children of God, and we are! Because of this the world does not know us: because it did not know him.

We have come to know love by this: that {he} laid down his life on behalf of us, and we ought to lay down our lives on behalf of the brothers.

Little children, let us not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and truth.

that if our heart condemns us, that God is greater than our heart and knows all [things].

Dear friends, if our heart does not condemn [us], we have confidence before God,

And this is his commandment: that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as {he commanded us}.

And the one who keeps his commandments resides in him, and he in him. And by this we know that he resides in us: by the Spirit whom he has given to us.

We are from God. The one who knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of deceit.

Dear friends, let us love one another, because love is from God, and everyone who loves has been fathered by God and knows God.

By this the love of God is revealed in us: that God sent his one and only Son into the world in order that we may live through him.

In this is love: not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son [to be the] propitiation for our sins.

Dear friends, if God loved us in this way, we also ought to love one another.

No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God resides in us and his love is perfected in us.

By this we know that we reside in him and he in us: that he has given us of his Spirit.

And we have come to know and have believed the love that God has in us. God is love, and the one who resides in love resides in God, and God resides in him.

By this love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment, because just as that one is, [so] also are we in this world.

We love, because he first loved us.

And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

And this is the confidence that we have before him: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.

And if we know that he hears us [in] whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked from him.

And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, in order that we may know the one who is true, and we are in the one who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This one is the true God and eternal life.
