1 John 1:3-10

New King James Version

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 ^(A)with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. ⁴ And these things we write to you ^(B)that ^[a]your joy may be full.

Fellowship with Him and One Another

^5 (C)This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that ^(D)God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. ^6 (E)If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. ⁷ But if we ^(F)walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and ^(G)the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

⁸ If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. ⁹ If we ^(H)confess our sins, He is ^(I)faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to ^(J)cleanse us from all unrighteousness. ¹⁰ If we say that we have not sinned, we ^(K)make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.
