1 John  


3 : 1 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
3 : 2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
3 : 3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
3 : 4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
3 : 5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
3 : 6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
3 : 7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
3 : 8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
3 : 9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
3 : 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
3 : 11 For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
3 : 12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother`s righteous.
3 : 13 Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.
3 : 14 We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.
3 : 15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.
3 : 16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
3 : 17 But whoso hath this world`s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
3 : 18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.
3 : 19 And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.
3 : 20 For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
3 : 21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.
3 : 22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
3 : 23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
3 : 24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
