62:001:001 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, of the Word of life;
62:001:002 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear
witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with
the Father, and was manifested unto us;)
62:001:003 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye
also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is
with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
62:001:004 And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.
62:001:005 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
62:001:006 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
62:001:007 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
62:001:008 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the

62:002:001 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
62:002:002 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for our's
only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
62:002:003 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his
commandments.
62:002:004 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments,
is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
62:002:005 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God
perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
62:002:006 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk,
even as he walked.
62:002:007 Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning.
62:002:008 Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.
62:002:009 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is
in darkness even until now.
62:002:010 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and ther
