1 John 1:5-7
New Life Version
Christians Are to Live in the Light
5 This is what we heard Him tell us. We are passing it on to you. God is light. There is no darkness in Him. 6 If we say we are joined together with Him but live in darkness, we are telling a lie. We are not living the truth. 7 If we live in the light as He is in the light, we share what we have in God with each other. And the blood of Jesus Christ, His Son, makes our lives clean from all sin.

Light and Darkness, Sin and Forgiveness
5 This is the message we have heard(A) from him and declare to you: God is light;(B) in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness,(C) we lie and do not live out the truth.(D) 7 But if we walk in the light,(E) as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all[a] sin.(F)
