1 John 2:8-10

8But there is something new about it. This rule has become true in the way that Christ lived. Now it has also become true in your lives. God's true message has brought light to shine in your lives. You no longer live in the dark where you do bad things.

9A person may say that he is living in the light. But if that person hates another believer, then he is telling a lie. He is still living in the dark.

10Anyone who loves other believers shows that he is living in the light. There is nothing that will make him turn away from God.
