The Word of Life
1 1That which was
2from the beginning,
3which we have heard,
4which we have seen with our eyes,
5which we looked upon and
6have touched with our hands, concerning the word of life--
2
7the life
8was made manifest, and we have seen it, and
9testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life,
10which was with the Father and
11was made manifest to us--
3
12that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed
13our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.
4
And we are writing these things so
14that our joy may be complete.
Walking in the Light
5 15This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that
16God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
