But the day of the LORD will come as a thief in the night, when the heavens shall suddenly pass away, and the universe shall separate as it burns, and the earth also and the works that are in it, shall pass away.

But grow in grace and in the knowledge of our LORD and Saviour Jesus Christ, and of God the Father. To him be glory both now and forever, and through all eternity. Amen.

But if we live in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.

And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

But you have been anointed by the Holy One, and you are enabled to distinguish between men.

I have written to you not because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie comes out of the truth.

Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is a false christ, and whoever denies the Father, denies the Son also.

Whoever denies the Son, the same does not believe in the Father; but whoever acknowledges the Son, acknowledges the Father also.

And now, my children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may not be ashamed before him, but have pride at his coming.

My beloved, now we are the sons of God, and as yet it has not been revealed what we shall be: but we know that when he shall appear, we shall be in his likeness; for we shall see him as he is.

My children, let us not love one another in word and in tongue, but in deed and in truth.

MY beloved, do not believe every prophecy, but examine the prophecies to find out if they are of God: because many false prophets have appeared in the world.
