1John:2
Seeker Overlay ON
*
My little children ,
I write you these things that you may not sin .
If any man sin ,
we have an Advocate with the Father ,
Jesus Christ the righteous !
*
He is the propitiation for our sins .
Not for ours only ,
but also for the whole world .
*
We know that we know him ,
when we obey his commandments .
*
He who says :
I know him ,
and does not obey his commandments is a liar !
The truth is not in him .
*
Whoever obeys his Word ;
the love of God is made perfect in him .
By this we know that we are in union with him .
*
He that says he lives in union with him should walk as he walked .
*
Beloved ,
I write no new commandment to you ,
but an old commandment you had from the beginning .
This old commandment is the word that you heard .
*
Then again ,
I do write a new commandment to you .
This is true in him and in you .
The darkness is passing away ,
and the true light already shines .
*
He who says he is in the light and hates his brother is still in the darkness !
*
He who loves his brother lives in the light ,
and there is no cause for stumbling in him .
*
But he who hates his brother is in the darkness ,
and walks in the darkness .
He does not know where he goes because the darkness has blinded his eyes .
*
I write to you ,
my little children ,
because your sins are forgiven on account of his name .
*
I write to you ,
fathers ,
because you know him who is from the beginning .
I write to you ,
young men ,
because you have overcome the evil one .
I write to you ,
little children ,
because you know the Father .
*
I write to you ,
fathers ,
because you have known him who is from the beginning .
I write to you ,
young men ,
because you are strong ,
and the word of God lives in you ,
and you have overcome the evil one .
*
Do not love the world or the things in the world .
If any one loves the world ,
the love of the Father is not in him .
*
The entire world ,
the desire of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of material wealth ,
is not from the Father ,
but is from the world .
*
The world and its desires are passing away ;
but he who does the will of God lives forever .
*
Little children ,
it is the last hour !
You heard that the antichrist is coming .
Even now many antichrists have come .
That is how we know that it is the last hour .
*
They went out from us ,
but they were not of us .
If they had belonged to us ,
they would have continued with us .
But they went out that it made it plain that they all are not of us .
*
You have an anointing from the Holy One ,
and you all know .
*
I have not written to you because you do not know the truth ,
but because you know it ,
and because no lie is of the truth .
*
Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ ?
This is the antichrist ,
even he who denies the Father and the Son .
*
Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father .
He who confesses the Son has the Father also .
*
As for you ,
let that live in you ,
which you heard from the beginning .
If that which you heard from the beginning lives in you ,
you will also live in the Son ,
and in the Father .
*
This is the promise he promised us ,
life eternal .
*
I write you these things concerning those who would lead you astray .
*
The anointing you received from Him is a part of you and you do not need anyone to teach you .
His anointing taught you concerning all things .
It is no lie .
It is truth ,
just as you were taught you live through him .
*
Now ,
my little children dwell with him .
If he shall be made known we may have boldness ,
and not be ashamed before him at his coming .
*
If you know that he is righteous you know that every one who practices righteousness is born of him .
