1 John 2:28-3:3

Jubilee Bible 2000

²⁸ ¶ And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

²⁹ If ye know that he is righteous, also know that any one that does righteousness is born of him.

3 ¶ Behold, what charity the Father has given us, that we should be called the sons of God; therefore the world does not know us, because it does not know him.

² Beloved, now we are the sons of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be; but we know that if he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

³ And every one that has this hope in him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
