In context

5But if anyone keeps His word, the love of God has been truly perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him:

6Whoever claims to abide in Him must walk as Jesus walked.

7Beloved, I am not writing to you a new commandment, but an old one, which you have had from the beginning. This commandment is the message you have heard.

8Then again, I am also writing to you a new commandment, which is true in Him and also in you. For the darkness is fading and the true light is already shining.

9If anyone claims to be in the light but hates his brother, he is still in the darkness.
