Walking in the Light

1 John 1

⁵ _l This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that _m God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. ⁶ _n If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and _o do not practice the truth. ⁷ But _p if we walk in the light, _q as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and _r the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. ⁸ _s If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and _t the truth is not in us. ⁹ _u If we confess our sins, he is _v faithful and just to forgive us our sins and _r to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. ¹⁰ If we say we have not sinned, _w we make him a liar, and _x his word is not in us.
