The F.O.G*
[8] Yet in another sense, I am writing you a new command, because its truth is being demonstrated afresh in the Messiah and in you. The world's spiritual darkness is fading away while the true light of God's love is already shining brightly!But because of its importance, I am writing it to you as a new commandment, which is true in Him and in you. For the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
again, a new command I write to you, which thing is true in him and in you, because the darkness doth pass away, and the true light doth now shine;
