1 John 1:4 in context
The whole interlinear chapter
1 John 1:3      1 John 1:5

First letter of John 1:4

We are now writing this [the introduction and the entire letter] so that our [both ours and yours] joy may be complete (perfect).
[This is the first of a total of four specific reasons why John is writing the letter. The first and last reasons are joy and assurance of salvation, see 1 John 5:13. Centrally, in the middle, are two exhortations not to sin and not to be led astray, see 1 John 2:1 and 1 John 2:26.]
