Why does it have strange spelling?
CHAP. I.
1 He describeth the person of Christ, in whome we haue eternal life, by a cōmunion with God: 5 to which we must adioine holinesse of life, to testifie the trueth of that our communion and profession of faith, as also to assure vs of the forgiuenesse of our sinnes by Christs death.
4 And these things write we vnto you, that your ioy may be full.
6 If we say that we haue felowship with him, and walke in darkenesse, we lie, and doe not the trueth.
8 If we say that we haue no sinne, we deceiue our selues, and the trueth is not in vs.
10 If we say that we haue not sinned, wee make him a liar, and his word is not in vs.
