* My children , I am writing this to you that you may not continue to sin ; but if any one sin , we ever have a Comforter before the Father , Jesus Christ the Righteous . * And he is the propitiation for our sins , and not for ours only , but also for those of the whole world . * This is how we may know that we have come to know Him , by always keeping his commandments . * He who says , "I know Him ," but does no continue obeying his commandments , is a liar , * and the truth is not in him ; bit if any man obey his word , in him truly is the love of God made perfect . By this we come to know that we are in him . * By who says he "remains in him " ought to spend his life as he spent his . * Beloved , I am not writing a new commandment to you , nay , and old commandment , which you have had from the beginning . That old commandment is the message to which you have listened . * Yet again it is a new commandment which I am writing to you , which is true in him and is you ; because the darkness is passing away , and the true light is already shining . * He who says he is in the light , and hates his brother , is in darkness even until now . * But he who loves his brother is abiding in the light , and in it there is no cause of stumbling . * But he who hates his brother is in the darkness , and is spending his life in the darkness , and does not know where he is going , because the darkness has blinded his eyes . * I am writing to you , little children , because you sins are forgiven you for his names sake . * I am writing to you , fathers , because you have come to know him who is from the beginning . I am writing to you , young men , because you have fully overcome the Evil One . I have written to you , little children , because you have learned to know the father . * I have written to you , fathers , because you have learned to know him who is from the beginning . I have written to you , young men , because you are strong , and the word of God is abiding in you , and you have fully overcome the Evil One . * Love not the world , neither the things that are in the world . If any man love the world , the love of the Father is not in him . * For all that is in the world , the lust of the flesh , and the lust of the eyes , and the proud glory of life , is not from the Father , but from the world ; * and the world and its lusts are passing away , but he who ever does the will of God abides forever . * My children , this is the last hour , and as you have heard that an antichrist was coming , and now many antichrists are already risen , whence we may know that it is the last hour . * They came forth from us , but they did not belong to us . If they had belonged to us they would certainly have remained with us , but they went out that they might be manifest that they all are not of us . * Now you have an anointing from the Holy One , and you know all things . * I am not writing to you because you do not know the truth , but because you do know it , and know that no lie is of the truth . * Who is the liar if not the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ ? This is the Antichrist , even he who disowns the Father and the Son . * Whoever denies the Son , the same has not the Father ; but he who confesses the Son has the Father also . As for you , let what you have heard from the beginning abide in you . * If what you have heard from the beginning is abiding in you , you also will ever abide in the Son and in the Father . * And this is the promise which he has promised to us even life eternal . * I have written this to you concerning those who would lead you astray . * As to you , the unction you received from him remains ever in you , and you need no teaching from any one . But since his unction teaches you concerning all things and is true , and is no lie , abide continually in him , as it has taught you to do . * And now continue to abide in him , my children , so that when he shall appear we may have cheerful confidence and not be ashamed before him at his coming . * If you know that he is righteous you know also that every one who habitually practises righteousness has been born of him .
