1 John 1:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ So if we say we have fellowship with God, but we ·continue living [^Lare walking] in darkness, we are liars and do not ·follow [perform; practice; act according to] the truth [John 8:12; 12:35]. ⁷ But if we ·live [^Lwalk] in the light, as ·God [^Lhe] is in the light, we ·can share [have] fellowship with each other. Then the blood of Jesus, God’s Son, cleanses us from every sin.

⁸ If we say we ·have no sin [or have no sin nature; or are not guilty of sinning], we are ·fooling [deceiving] ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
