quiet, steady words

Quiet, steady words in a time in a world where we have neither...



1 John 1

5 This is the message we heard from Jesus 

and now declare to you: 


God is light, 

and there is no darkness in him at all.


6 So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness; 

we are not practicing the truth.

7 But if we are living in the light, 

as God is in the light, 

then we have fellowship with each other, 

and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.



  8 If we claim we have no sin, 

we are only fooling ourselves 

and not living in the truth.

9 But if we confess our sins to him, 

he is faithful 

and just 

to forgive us our sins 

and to cleanse us from all wickedness.

10 If we claim we have not sinned, 

we are calling God a liar 

and showing that his word has no place in our hearts.
