I have written to you, beloved children - Thus St. John bespeaks all to whom he writes. But in Jo1 2:13-27, he divides them particularly into "fathers," "young men," and "little children." Because your sins are forgiven you - As if he had said, This is the sum of what I have now written. He then proceeds to other things, which are built upon this foundation. 1 John 2:13
