1 John 2:1-6

Christ is our advocate. Of true love, and how it is tried.

My little children, these things I write to you so that you do not sin. Yet if anyone sins, we have an advocate with the Father: Jesus Christ the Righteous, and he is the propitiation for our sins; and not for our sins only, but also for the sins of all the world. 

And hereby are we sure that we know him: if we keep his commandments. He who says, I know him, and does not keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. Whoever keeps his word, in him is the love of God perfected in deed. And thereby we know that we are in him. He who says he abides in him ought to walk even as he walked.
