“This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is ; in him there is no at all.

If we claim to have with him and yet walk in the darkness, we and do not live out the truth.

But if we , as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from .

If we claim we have sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us.”
