5 Here is the message we have heard from God and now tell to you: God is light, and in him there is no darkness at all.

6 So if we say that we have fellowship with God, but we continue living in darkness, then we are liars. We do not follow the truth.

7 God is in the light. We should live in the light, too. If we live in the light, we share fellowship with each other. And when we live in the light, the blood of the death of Jesus, God’s Son, is making us clean from every sin.
