1 John 1:5-10

Modern English Version

God Is Light

⁵ This then is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you: God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. ⁶ If we say that we have fellowship with Him, yet walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. ⁷ 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 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 confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. ¹⁰ If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us.
