The Messiah is Our Advocate

2My little children, I'm writing these things to you so that you might not sin. Yet if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father - Jesus, the Messiah, one who is righteous.G3450G5040G5023G1125G5213G3363G264G3363G2532G1437G5100G264G2192G3875G4314G3962G2424G5547G1342
2It is he who is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world's.G2532G846G2076G2434G4012G2257G266G1161G3756G4012G2251G3440G235G2532G4012G3650G2889
3This is how we can be sure that we have come to know him: if we continually keep his commandments.G2532G1722G5129G1097G3754G1097G846G1437G5083G846G1785
4The person who says, "I have come to know him," but does not continually keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth has no place in that person.G3004G1097G846G2532G5083G3361G846G1785G2076G5583G2532G225G2076G3756G1722G5129
5But whoever continually keeps his commandments is the kind of person in whom God's love has truly been perfected. This is how we can be sure that we are in union with God:G1161G3739G302G5083G846G3056G1722G5129G230G5048G26G2316G5048G1722G5129G1097G3754G2070G1722G846
6The one who says that he abides in him must live the same way he himself lived.G3004G3306G1722G846G3784G846G2532G3779G4043G2531G1565G4043

We Must Obey God’s Commandments

7Dear friends, I am not writing to you a new commandment, but an old commandment that you have had from the beginning. This old commandment is the word you have heard.G80G1125G3756G2537G1785G5213G235G3820G1785G3739G2192G575G746G3820G1785G2076G3056G3739G191G575G746
8On the other hand, I am writing to you a new commandment that is truly in him and in you. For the darkness is fading away, and the true light is already shining.G3825G2537G1785G1125G5213G3739G2076G227G1722G846G2532G1722G5213G3754G4653G3855G2532G228G5457G2235G5316
9The person who says that he is in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness.G3004G1511G1722G5457G2532G3404G846G80G2076G1722G4653G2193G737
10The person who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no reason for him to stumble.G25G846G80G3306G1722G5457G2532G2076G3756G4625G1722G846
11But the person who hates his brother is in the darkness and lives in the darkness. He does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.G1161G3404G846G80G2076G1722G4653G2532G4043G1722G4653G2532G1492G3756G4226G5217G3754G4653G5186G846G3788
12I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven on account of his name.G1125G5213G5040G3754G266G863G5213G1223G846G3686G1223
13I am writing to you, fathers, because you have known the one who has existed from the beginning. I am writing to you, young people, because you have overcome the evil one.G1125G5213G3962G3754G1097G575G746G1125G5213G3495G3754G3528G4190G1125G5213G3813G3754G1097G3962
14I have written to you, little children, because you have known the Father. I have written to you, fathers, because you have known the one who has existed from the beginning. I have written to you, young people, because you are strong and because God's word remains in you and you have overcome the evil one.G1125G5213G3962G3754G1097G575G746G1125G5213G3495G3754G2075G2478G2532G3056G2316G3306G1722G5213G2532G3528G4190
15Stop loving the world and the things that are in the world. If anyone persists in loving the world, the Father's love is not in him.G25G3361G2889G3366G1722G2889G1437G5100G25G2889G26G3962G2076G3756G1722G846
16For everything that is in the world - the desire for fleshly gratification, the desire for possessions, and worldly arrogance - is not from the Father but is from the world.G3754G3956G1722G2889G1939G4561G2532G1939G3788G2532G212G979G2076G3756G1537G3962G235G2076G1537G2889
17And the world and its desires are fading away, but the person who does God's will remains forever.G2532G2889G3855G2532G1939G846G1161G4160G2307G2316G3306G1519G165

Live in the Messiah

18Little children, it is the last hour. Just as you heard that an antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have appeared. This is how we know it is the last hour.G3813G2076G2078G5610G2532G2531G191G3754G500G2064G2532G3568G1096G4183G500G3606G1097G3754G2076G2078G5610
19They left us, but they were not part of us, for if they had been part of us, they would have stayed with us. Their leaving made it clear that none of them was really part of us.G1831G1537G2257G235G2258G3756G1537G2257G1063G1487G2258G1537G2257G302G3306G3326G2257G235G2443G5319G3754G1526G3756G3956G1537G2257
20You have an anointing from the Holy One and know all things.G2532G5210G2192G5545G575G40G2532G1492G3956
21I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it and because lies don't come from truth.G1125G3756G1125G5213G3754G1492G3756G225G235G3754G1492G846G2532G3754G3956G3756G5579G2076G1537G225
22Who is a liar but the person who denies that Jesus is the Messiah? The person who denies the Father and the Son is an antichrist.G5101G2076G5583G1508G720G3754G2424G2076G3756G5547G3778G2076G500G720G3962G2532G5207
23No one who denies the Son has the Father. The person who acknowledges the Son also has the Father.G3956G720G5207G2192G3761G3962G3670G5207G2192G3962G2532
24What you have heard from the beginning must abide in you. If what you have heard from the beginning abides in you, you will also abide in the Son and in the Father.G3306G3767G3306G1722G5213G3739G5210G191G575G746G1437G3739G191G575G746G3306G1722G5213G5210G2532G3306G1722G5207G2532G1722G3962
25The message that the Son himself declared to us is eternal life.G2532G3778G2076G1860G3739G846G1861G2254G166G2222
26I have written to you about those who are trying to deceive you.G5023G1125G5213G4012G4105G5209
27The anointing you received from God abides in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you this. Instead, because God's anointing teaches you about everything and is true and not a lie, abide in him, as he taught you to do.G2532G5545G3739G5210G2983G575G846G3306G1722G5213G2532G5532G2192G3756G2443G5100G1321G5209G235G5613G846G5545G1321G5209G4012G3956G2532G2076G227G2532G2076G3756G5579G2532G2531G1321G5209G3306G1722G846

Abide in Him

28Even now, little children, abide in him. Then, when he appears, we will have confidence and will not turn away from him in shame when he comes.G2532G3568G5040G3306G1722G846G2443G3752G5319G2192G3954G2532G3361G153G575G846G1722G846G3952
29Since you know that he is righteous, you also know that everyone who practices righteousness has been fathered by God.G1437G1492G3754G2076G1342G1097G3754G3956G4160G1343G1080G1537G846
