what we have seen and heard we also declare to you, so that ye also may have fellowship with us. Even also our fellowship with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
And we write these things to you, so that our joy may be made full.
And this is the message that we have heard from him and declare to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from every sin.
If we say that we have no sin, we lead ourselves astray, and the truth is not in us.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous so that he will forgive us our sins, and cleanse us from every unrighteousness.
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
