1My little children, these things write I unto you that ye may not sin. And if any man sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:

2and he is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.

3And hereby we know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

4He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;

5but whoso keepeth his word, in him verily hath the love of God been perfected. Hereby we know that we are in him:

6he that saith he abideth in him ought himself also to walk even as he walked.

7Beloved, no new commandment write I unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning: the old commandment is the word which ye heard.
