11 And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,

2 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. t 3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.

4 And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand.

4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

c 5 But whoso keepeth his word, 4 And these things write we in him verily is the love of God unto you, that your joy may be perfected: hereby know we that full. we are in him. t 5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

6 He that saith he abideth in him, ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.

7 Brethren, I write no new com6 If we say that we have fel-mandment unto you, but an old lowship with him, and walk in commandment which ye had from darkness, we lie, and do not the the beginning: The old commandtruth: ment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning.

t 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

d 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

8 Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.

c 9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.

10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.

d 15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

t 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for

ever.

18 Little children, it is the last time and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. t t 19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

t 20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.

21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.

26 These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.

27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

d 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.

t 29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.

EHOLD what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God! therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

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

d 3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

and in him is no sin.

6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.

c 7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. c 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

d 11 For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

19 And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall a sure our hearts before him.

20 For if our heart condemn God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.

21 Beloved, if our heart can demn us not, then have we com dence toward God.

22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

d 23 And this is his command ment; that we should believe the name of his Son Jesus Chris and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
