1 John 2:7-9

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁷ Dear friends, I am not writing you a new command^(A) but an old command that you have had from the beginning. The old command is the message^(B) you have heard. ⁸ Yet I am writing you a new command, which is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away^(C) and the true light^(D) is already shining.^(E)

⁹ The one who says he is in the light but hates his brother^(F) is in the darkness until now.
