"Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is."

"(For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)"

"No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us."

"Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another."

"Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:"

"If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us."

"That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ."

"If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth."

"If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us."

"Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous."
