'Little' in the Bible

My little children, I'm writing these things to you so that you might not sin. Yet if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father Jesus, the Messiah, one who is righteous.

I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven on account of his name.

I have written to you, little children, because you have known the Father. I have written to you, fathers, because you have known the one who has existed from the beginning. I have written to you, young people, because you are strong and because God's word remains in you and you have overcome the evil one.

Little children, it is the last hour. Just as you heard that an antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have appeared. This is how we know it is the last hour.

Even now, little children, abide in him. Then, when he appears, we will have confidence and will not turn away from him in shame when he comes.

Little children, don't let anyone deceive you. The person who practices righteousness is righteous, just as the Messiah is righteous.

Little children, we must stop expressing love merely by our words and manner of speech; we must love also in action and in truth.

Little children, you belong to God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.

Little children, keep yourselves away from idols.
