1 John 2:1, 13-14, 21, 26

1 John 2:1 NLT

My dear children, I am writing this to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate who pleads our case before the Father. He is Jesus Christ, the one who is truly righteous.

1 John 2:13-14 NLT

I am writing to you who are mature in the faith because you know Christ, who existed from the beginning. I am writing to you who are young in the faith because you have won your battle with the evil one. I have written to you who are God’s children because you know the Father. I have written to you who are mature in the faith because you know Christ, who existed from the beginning. I have written to you who are young in the faith because you are strong. God’s word lives in your hearts, and you have won your battle with the evil one.

1 John 2:21 NLT

So I am writing to you not because you don’t know the truth but because you know the difference between truth and lies.

1 John 2:26 NLT

I am writing these things to warn you about those who want to lead you astray.
