Holman Christian Standard Bible Help
2My little children, I am writing you these things so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father— Jesus Christ the righteous One.G3450G5040G5023G1125G5213G3363G264G3363G2532G1437G5100G264G2192G3875G4314G3962G2424G5547G1342
2He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not only for ours, but also for those of the whole world.G2532G846G2076G2434G4012G2257G266G1161G3756G4012G2251G3440G235G2532G4012G3650G2889

God’s Commands

3This is how we are sure that we have come to know Him: by keeping His commands.G2532G1722G5129G1097G3754G1097G846G1437G5083G846G1785
4The one who says, "I have come to know Him," without keeping His commands, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.G3004G1097G846G2532G5083G3361G846G1785G2076G5583G2532G225G2076G3756G1722G5129
5But whoever keeps His word, truly in him the love of God is perfected. This is how we know we are in Him:G1161G3739G302G5083G846G3056G1722G5129G230G5048G26G2316G5048G1722G5129G1097G3754G2070G1722G846
6the one who says he remains in Him should walk just as He walked.G3004G3306G1722G846G3784G846G2532G3779G4043G2531G1565G4043
7Dear friends, I am not writing you a new command, but an old command that you have had from the beginning. The old command is the message you have heard.G80G1125G3756G2537G1785G5213G235G3820G1785G3739G2192G575G746G3820G1785G2076G3056G3739G191G575G746
8Yet I am writing you a new command, which is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining.G3825G2537G1785G1125G5213G3739G2076G227G1722G846G2532G1722G5213G3754G4653G3855G2532G228G5457G2235G5316
9The one who says he is in the light but hates his brother is in the darkness until now.G3004G1511G1722G5457G2532G3404G846G80G2076G1722G4653G2193G737
10The one who loves his brother remains in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him.G25G846G80G3306G1722G5457G2532G2076G3756G4625G1722G846
11But the one who hates his brother is in the darkness, walks in the darkness, and doesn't know where he's going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.G1161G3404G846G80G2076G1722G4653G2532G4043G1722G4653G2532G1492G3756G4226G5217G3754G4653G5186G846G3788

Reasons for Writing

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 come to know the One who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have had victory over the evil one.G1125G5213G3962G3754G1097G575G746G1125G5213G3495G3754G3528G4190G1125G5213G3813G3754G1097G3962
14I have written to you, children, because you have come to know the Father. I have written to you, fathers, because you have come to know the One who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, God's word remains in you, and you have had victory over the evil one.G1125G5213G3962G3754G1097G575G746G1125G5213G3495G3754G2075G2478G2532G3056G2316G3306G1722G5213G2532G3528G4190

A Warning about the World

15Do not love the world or the things that belong to the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in him. Because everything that belongs to the world—G25G3361G2889G3366G1722G2889G1437G5100G25G2889G26G3962G2076G3756G1722G846
16the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride in one's lifestyle— is not from the Father, but is from the world.G3754G3956G1722G2889G1939G4561G2532G1939G3788G2532G212G979G2076G3756G1537G3962G235G2076G1537G2889
17And the world with its lust is passing away, but the one who does God's will remains forever.G2532G2889G3855G2532G1939G846G1161G4160G2307G2316G3306G1519G165

The Last Hour

18Children, it is the last hour. And as you have heard, "Antichrist is coming," even now many antichrists have come. We know from this that it is the last hour.G3813G2076G2078G5610G2532G2531G191G3754G500G2064G2532G3568G1096G4183G500G3606G1097G3754G2076G2078G5610
19They went out from us, but they did not belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us. However, they went out so that it might be made clear that none of them belongs to us.G1831G1537G2257G235G2258G3756G1537G2257G1063G1487G2258G1537G2257G302G3306G3326G2257G235G2443G5319G3754G1526G3756G3956G1537G2257
20But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all have knowledge.G2532G5210G2192G5545G575G40G2532G1492G3956
21I have not written to you because you don't know the truth, but because you do know it, and because no lie comes from the truth.G1125G3756G1125G5213G3754G1492G3756G225G235G3754G1492G846G2532G3754G3956G3756G5579G2076G1537G225
22Who is the liar, if not the one who denies that Jesus is the Messiah? He is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.G5101G2076G5583G1508G720G3754G2424G2076G3756G5547G3778G2076G500G720G3962G2532G5207
23No one who denies the Son can have the Father; he who confesses the Son has the Father as well.G3956G720G5207G2192G3761G3962G3670G5207G2192G3962G2532

Remaining with God

24What you have heard from the beginning must remain in you. If what you have heard from the beginning remains in you, then you will remain in the Son and in the Father.G3306G3767G3306G1722G5213G3739G5210G191G575G746G1437G3739G191G575G746G3306G1722G5213G5210G2532G3306G1722G5207G2532G1722G3962
25And this is the promise that He Himself made to us: eternal life.G2532G3778G2076G1860G3739G846G1861G2254G166G2222
26I have written these things to you about those who are trying to deceive you.G5023G1125G5213G4012G4105G5209
27The anointing you received from Him remains in you, and you don't need anyone to teach you. Instead, His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie; just as it has taught you, remain in Him.G2532G5545G3739G5210G2983G575G846G3306G1722G5213G2532G5532G2192G3756G2443G5100G1321G5209G235G5613G846G5545G1321G5209G4012G3956G2532G2076G227G2532G2076G3756G5579G2532G2531G1321G5209G3306G1722G846

God’s Children

28So now, little children, remain in Him, so that when He appears we may have boldness and not be ashamed before Him at His coming.G2532G3568G5040G3306G1722G846G2443G3752G5319G2192G3954G2532G3361G153G575G846G1722G846G3952
29If you know that He is righteous, you know this as well: everyone who does what is right has been born of Him.G1437G1492G3754G2076G1342G1097G3754G3956G4160G1343G1080G1537G846
