1 John 1
1:1 That which was
from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with
our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled,
concerning the Word of life--
1:2 the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness,
and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father
and was manifested to us--
1:3 that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you
also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is
with the Father and with His Son Yahushua the Messiah.
1:4 And these things we write to you that your joy may be
full.
5 This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to
you, that YHWH is light and in Him is no darkness at
all.
1:6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in
darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
1:7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have
fellowship with one another, and the blood of Yahushua the
Messiah His Son cleanses us from all sin.
1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the
truth is not in us.
1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us
our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we declare Him a liar, and
His word is not in us.
