(Luke 24:36–49; John 20:19–23)
1
I, John, am writing to you about the one who existed before there was anything else. He is the one whom we apostles listened to as he taught us. We saw him. We ourselves looked at him and touched him. He is the one who taught us the message about eternal life.
2
Because he came here to the earth and we have seen him, we proclaim to you clearly that the one whom we have seen is the one who has always lived. He was previously with his Father in heaven, but he came to live among us.
3
We are proclaiming to you the message about Jesus, the one whom we saw and heard, in order that you may join together with us. The ones with whom we have joined are God our Father and his Son Jesus Christ.
4
I am writing to you about these things so that you will be convinced that they are true, and that as a result we may be completely joyful.

Walking in the Light

(John 8:12–29)
5
The message that we heard from God and that we are proclaiming to you is this: He never sins. He is like a brilliant light that has no darkness at all.
6
If we claim to have joined together with God, but if we conduct our lives in an impure manner, that is like living in evil darkness. We are lying. We are not conducting our lives according to God’s true message.
7
But living in a pure manner, as God is living in a pure manner in every way, is like living in God’s light. If we do that, we can join together with each other, and God forgives us and accepts us because Jesus died for us.
8
Those who say that they have never sinned are deceiving themselves and are refusing to believe what God says about them.
9
But God always does what he says he will do, and what he does is always right. So if we admit to him that we have sinned, he will forgive us for our sins and will free us from the guilt of everything we have done wrong. Because of that, we should admit to him that we have sinned.
10
Because God says that everyone has sinned, those who say that they have never sinned talk as though God lies! They reject what God says about us!
(Luke 24:36–49; John 20:19–23)
1
That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life
2
(and the life was revealed, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the life, the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us);
3
that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.(a)
4
And we write these things to you, that our joy may be fulfilled.

Walking in the Light

(John 8:12–29)
5
This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6
If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie and don’t tell the truth.
7
But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one 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 righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10
If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
