5 This is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in Him at all. 6 If we claim we have fellowship in Him, yet we walk in darkness, we are lying and we do not live by the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light as He Himself 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 claim that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we claim we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar, and His word is not in us.
