1 John 1:7-10

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 his Son cleanses us from all sin.

8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive

  • urselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we

confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all

  • unrighteousness. 10 If we say we have not

sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
