NKJ 1 John 2

1 My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

2 And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.

3 Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments.

4 He who says, 11I know Him," and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

5 But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.

6 He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.

7 Brethren,I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning.

8 Again, a new commandment I write to you, which thing is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.

9 He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now.

10 He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him.

11 But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

I.- We know Christ Jesus by doing His commandments, V3 a. Love one another.
b. Forgiving one another.
c. Putting all the hate behind.

II.- By keeping His word. v5 a. Living according to the truth.
b. Meditating in the promises.
c. Imitating Christ, practicing what we learn from Him. v6

Shine your Light to the world,
Let everyone see Christ in you.
Do you want Jesus Christ to be your Advocate, your Lawyer? We need to live in His light because living in darkness does not please Jesus and we can lose him.
