1
My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.
2
And He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
3
And hereby we know that we know Him: if we keep His commandments.
4
He that saith, "I know Him," and keepeth not His commandments, is a liar and the truth is not in him.
5
But whoso keepeth His Word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in Him.
6
He that saith that he abideth in Him, ought himself also so to walk, even as He walked.
