TSK · 1 John 2:8

By David. The LORD delivers and vindicates me! I fear no one! The LORD protects my life! I am afraid of no one!

For the LORD God is our sovereign protector. The LORD bestows favor and honor; he withholds no good thing from those who have integrity.

(9:1) The people walking in darkness see a bright light; light shines on those who live in a land of deep darkness.

But for you who respect my name, the sun of vindication will rise with healing wings, and you will skip about like calves released from the stall.

to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.”

The true light, who gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.

“I give you a new commandment– to love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.

The night has advanced toward dawn; the day is near. So then we must lay aside the works of darkness, and put on the weapons of light.

for you were at one time darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live like children of light–

but now made visible through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus. He has broken the power of death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel!

So, since Christ suffered in the flesh, you also arm yourselves with the same attitude, because the one who has suffered in the flesh has finished with sin,

Dear friends, if God so loved us, then we also ought to love one another.
