1 John 1:6
Print
If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth.
If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness [of sin], we lie and do not practice the truth;
[So] if we say we are partakers together and enjoy fellowship with Him when we live and move and are walking about in darkness, we are [both] speaking falsely and do not live and practice the Truth [which the Gospel presents].
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
If we say, “We have fellowship with him,” and yet we walk in darkness, we are lying and are not practicing the truth.
If we claim, “We have fellowship with him,” and live in the darkness, we are lying and do not act truthfully.
If we claim to have fellowship with him while we are walking in the darkness, we are lying and not living out the truth.
If we say we share in life with God and keep on living in the dark, we are lying and are not living by the truth.
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not practise the truth.
If we claim that we have fellowship with Him and are walking in the darkness, we are lying and not doing the truth.
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth.
So if we say that we share in life with God, but we continue living in darkness, we are liars, who don’t follow the truth.
Do you say that you share in the life that God gives? If you say that, but if you still live in the dark, you are telling a lie. You are not living in God's true way.
If we say we have fellowship with him but still walk in darkness, we are lying and do not put the truth into practice.
If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practise the truth.
So if we say we have fellowship with God, but we ·continue living [L are walking] in darkness, we are liars and do not ·follow [perform; practice; act according to] the truth [John 8:12; 12:35].
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not truly.
If we say, “We have a relationship with God” and yet live in the dark, we’re lying. We aren’t being truthful.
If, then, we say that we have fellowship with him, yet at the same time live in the darkness, we are lying both in our words and in our actions.
If we say, “We have fellowship with Him,” yet we walk in darkness, we are lying and are not practicing the truth.
So if we say that we have fellowship with God, but we continue living in darkness, then we are liars. We do not follow the truth.
If we claim that we have fellowship with him but keep living in darkness, we are lying and not practicing the truth.
Here, then, is the message which we heard from him, and now proclaim to you: GOD IS LIGHT and no shadow of darkness can exist in him. Consequently, if we were to say that we enjoyed fellowship with him and still went on living in darkness, we should be both telling and living a lie. But if we really are living in the same light in which he eternally exists, then we have true fellowship with each other, and the blood which his Son shed for us keeps us clean from all sin. If we refuse to admit that we are sinners, then we live in a world of illusion and truth becomes a stranger to us. But if we freely admit that we have sinned, we find God utterly reliable and straightforward—he forgives our sins and makes us thoroughly clean from all that is evil. For if we take up the attitude “we have not sinned”, we flatly deny God’s diagnosis of our condition and cut ourselves off from what he has to say to us.
If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth;
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not do the truth;
If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
So if we say we are his friends but go on living in spiritual darkness and sin, we are lying.
If we claim that we experience a shared life with him and continue to stumble around in the dark, we’re obviously lying through our teeth—we’re not living what we claim. But if we walk in the light, God himself being the light, we also experience a shared life with one another, as the sacrificed blood of Jesus, God’s Son, purges all our sin.
If we say that we have fellowship with Him, yet walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
If we say that we have fellowship with him but continue to walk in · darkness, we lie and are not putting the truth into practice.
If we say, “We have a relationship with God” and yet live in the dark, we’re lying. We aren’t being truthful.
If we say, “We have fellowship with him,” while we continue to walk in darkness, we lie and do not act in truth.
If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth;
If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth;
If we claim that we have fellowship with him while we continue to live in darkness, we are lying and do not live in the truth.
So if we say we have fellowship with God, but we continue living in darkness, we are liars and do not follow the truth.
If we say we have fellowship with him and yet keep on walking in the darkness, we are lying and not practicing the truth.

If we say that we have fellowship with him while we are walking in darkness, we lie and do not do what is true;
If we say that we have fellowship with him while we are walking in darkness, we lie and do not do what is true;
If we say that we have fellowship with him while we are walking in darkness, we lie and do not do what is true;
If we say that we have fellowship with him while we are walking in darkness, we lie and do not do what is true;
If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the dark, we are telling lies, and not doing what is true.
If we make the claim that we have deveykus with Him and in the choshech walk, we speak sheker and have no halakhah in the Derech Emes.
If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not truly.
If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not live according to the truth;
If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not live according to the truth;
If we say we have fellowship with Him and keep walking in the darkness, we are lying and do not practice the truth.
If we say we have an intimate connection with the Father but we continue stumbling around in darkness, then we are lying because we do not live according to truth.
If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and don’t tell the truth.
Do we say that we belong with him? And at the same time, do we live in the dark? Then what we say is not true, and what we do is not right.
If we say, that we have fellowship with him, and we wander in darknesses, we lie, and do not truth.
if we may say -- `we have fellowship with Him,' and in the darkness may walk -- we lie, and do not the truth;
