1 John Chapter 2
2:1 | 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, ![]() |
2:2 | And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for [the sins of] the whole world. |
2:3 | And hereby we ![]() |
2:4 | He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the ![]() |
2:5 | But whoso keepeth his word, in him ![]() |
2:6 | He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. |
2:7 | Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the ![]() ![]() |
2:8 | Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth. |
2:9 | He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. |
2:10 | He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him. |
2:11 | But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes. |
2:12 | I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name' sake. |
2:13 | I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him [that is] from the ![]() |
2:14 | I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him [that is] from the ![]() |
2:15 | 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. |
2:16 | For all that [is] in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. |
2:17 | And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. |
2:18 | Little children, it is the last ![]() ![]() |
2:19 | They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would [no doubt] have continued with us: but [they went out], that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. |
2:20 | But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. |
2:21 | I have not written unto you because ye know not the ![]() ![]() |
2:22 | Who is a liar but he that denieth that ![]() |
2:23 | Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [(but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also]. |
2:24 | Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the ![]() ![]() |
2:25 | And this is the promise that he hath promised us, [even] eternal life. |
2:26 | These [things] have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you. |
2:27 | But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is ![]() |
2:28 | And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming. |
2:29 | If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him. |
