![]() 2 z He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but a also for the sins of the whole world. But if anyone does sin, y we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. Christ Our AdvocateĢ My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. ![]() 10 If we say we have not sinned, w we make him a liar, and x his word is not in us. ![]() 9 u If we confess our sins, he is v faithful and just to forgive us our sins and r to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 8 s If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and t the truth is not in us. 7 But p if we walk in the light, q as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and r the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 6 n If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and o do not practice the truth. Walking in the Lightĥ l This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that m God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 4 And we are writing these things so k that our 1 joy may be complete. 1 John The Word of Lifeġ a That which was b from the beginning, c which we have heard, d which we have seen with our eyes, e which we looked upon and f have touched with our hands, concerning the word of life - 2 g the life h was made manifest, and we have seen it, and i testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life, a which was with the Father and h was made manifest to us - 3 c that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us and indeed j our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. t To him be the glory both now and to the day of u eternity. 18 But s grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 17 You therefore, beloved, q knowing this beforehand, r take care that you are not carried away with the error of lawless people and lose your own stability. o There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, p as they do the other Scriptures. 15 And count l the patience of our Lord as salvation, just as m our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you n according to the wisdom given him, 16 as he does in all his letters when he speaks in them of these matters. Final Wordsġ4 h Therefore, beloved, since you are waiting for these, be diligent to be found by him i without spot or j blemish, and k at peace. 3ġ1 Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, c what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, 12 d waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved, and e the heavenly bodies will melt as they burn ! 13 But according to his promise we are waiting for f new heavens and a new earth g in which righteousness dwells. 10 But z the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then a the heavens will pass away with a roar, and b the heavenly bodies 2 will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed. 9 u The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise v as some count slowness, but w is patient toward you, 1 x not wishing that any should perish, but y that all should reach repentance. Ĩ But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and t a thousand years as one day. 7 But by the same word r the heavens and earth that now exist are stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and s destruction of the ungodly. ” 5 For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth n was formed out of water and through water o by the word of God, 6 and that by means of these the world that then existed p was deluged with water and q perished. 4 l They will say, “ Where is the promise of m his coming ? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation. In both of them g I am stirring up your sincere mind by way of reminder, 2 h that you should remember the predictions of i the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles, 3 knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come j in the last days with scoffing, k following their own sinful desires. 3 This is now the second letter that I am writing to you, beloved.
