Cleanseth
1 John 1:7
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another…


Not a coming to the fountain to be cleansed only, but a remaining in it, so that it may and can go on cleansing; the force of the tense a continuous present, always a present tense, not a present which the next moment becomes a past.

(Frances R. Havergal.)
