Who is false but he who says that Jesus is not the Christ? He is the Antichrist who has no belief in the Father or the Son.

I am writing these things to you about those whose purpose is that you may be turned out of the true way.

And now, my children, keep your hearts in him; so that at his revelation, we may have no fear or shame before him at his coming.

If you have knowledge that he is upright, it is clear to you that everyone who does righteousness is his offspring.

My loved ones, now we are children of God, and at present it is not clear what we are to be. We are certain that at his revelation we will be like him; for we will see him as he is.

And you have knowledge that he came to take away sin: and in him there is no sin.

The sinner is a child of the Evil One; for the Evil One has been a sinner from the first. And the Son of God was seen on earth so that he might put an end to the works of the Evil One.

Because this is the word which was given to you from the first, that we are to have love for one another;

We are conscious that we have come out of death into life because of our love for the brothers. He who has no love is still in death.

Anyone who has hate for his brother is a taker of life, and you may be certain that no taker of life has eternal life in him.

But if a man has this world's goods, and sees that his brother is in need, and keeps his heart shut against his brother, how is it possible for the love of God to be in him?

In this way we may be certain that we are true, and may give our heart comfort before him,

When our heart says that we have done wrong; because God is greater than our heart, and has knowledge of all things.

My loved ones, if our heart does not say that we have done wrong, we have no fear before him;

And this is his law, that we have faith in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love for one another, even as he said to us.

He who keeps his laws is in God and God is in him. And the Spirit which he gave us is our witness that he is in us.

By this you may have knowledge of the Spirit of God: every spirit which says that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God:

You are of God, my little children, and you have overcome them because he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

And the love of God was made clear to us when he sent his only Son into the world so that we might have life through him.

And this is love, not that we had love for God, but that he had love for us, and sent his Son to be an offering for our sins.

And his Spirit which he has given us is the witness that we are in him and he is in us.

And we have seen and give witness that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

Everyone who says openly that Jesus is the Son of God, has God in him and is in God.

In this way love is made complete in us, so that we may be without fear on the day of judging, because as he is, so are we in this world.

And this is the word which we have from him, that he who has love for God is to have the same love for his brother.

Everyone who has faith that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God: and everyone who has love for the Father has love for his child.

In this way, we are certain that we have love for the children of God, when we have love for God and keep his laws.

Who is able to overcome the world but the man who has faith that Jesus is the Son of God?

And his witness is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

I have put these things in writing for you who have faith in the name of the Son of God, so that you may be certain that you have eternal life.

And we are certain that if we make any request to him which is right in his eyes, he will give ear to us:

And if we are certain that he gives ear to all our requests, we are equally certain that we will get our requests.

If a man sees his brother doing a sin which is not bad enough for death, let him make a prayer to God, and God will give life to him whose sin was not bad enough for death. There is a sin whose punishment is death: I do not say that he may make such a request then.

We are certain that one who is a child of God will do no sin, but the Son of God keeps him so that he is not touched by the Evil One.

We are certain that we are of God, but all the world is in the power of the Evil One.

And we are certain that the Son of God has come, and has given us a clear vision, so that we may see him who is true, and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.

And now, my sister, I make a request to you, not sending you a new law, but the law which we had from the first, that we have love for one another.

And love is the keeping of his laws. This is the law which was given to you from the first, so that you might keep it.

Because a number of false teachers have gone out into the world, who do not give witness that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. Such a one is a false teacher and Antichrist.

Keep watch over yourselves, so that you do not make our work of no effect, but may get your full reward.

Having much to say to you, it is not my purpose to put it all down with paper and ink: but I am hoping to come to you, and to have talk with you face to face, so that your joy may be full.

My loved one, it is my prayer that you may do well in all things, and be healthy in body, even as your soul does well.

For it gave me great joy when some of the brothers came and gave witness that you had the true faith and were walking in the true way.

I have no greater joy than to have news that my children are walking in the true way.

So it is right for us to take in such men as guests, so that we may take our part in the work of the true faith.

Demetrius has the approval of all men and of what is true: and we give the same witness, and you are certain that our witness is true.

The Revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave him so that his servants might have knowledge of the things which will quickly take place: and he sent and made it clear by his angel to his servant John;

I have knowledge of your doings, and of your hard work and long waiting, and that you will not put up with evil men, and have put to the test those who say they are Apostles and are not, and have seen that they are false;

But I have this against you, that you are turned away from your first love.

Have no fear of the things which you will have to undergo: see, the Evil One will send some of you into prison, so that you may be put to the test; and you will have great trouble for ten days. Be true till death, and I will give you the crown of life.

I have knowledge that your living-place is where Satan has his seat: and you are true to my name, and were not turned away from your faith in me, even in the days of Antipas, my true witness, who was put to death among you, where Satan has his place.

See, then, that you have a change of heart; or I will come to you quickly, and will make war against them with the sword of my mouth.

I have knowledge of your works, and your love and faith and help and strength in trouble, and that your last works are more than the first.

But I have this against you, that you let the woman Jezebel say she is a prophet and give false teaching, making my servants go after the desires of the flesh and take food offered to false gods.

And I will put her children to death; and all the churches will see that I am he who makes search into the secret thoughts and hearts of men: and I will give to every one of you the reward of your works.

And to the angel of the church in Sardis say: These things says he who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: I have knowledge of your works, that you seem to be living but are dead.

And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia say: These things says he who is holy, he who is true, he who has the key of David, opening the door so that it may be shut by no one, and shutting it so that it may be open to no one.

I have knowledge of your works (see, I have put before you an open door which may be shut by no one), and that you have a little strength, and have kept my word, and have been true to my name.

I come quickly: keep that which you have, so that no one may take your crown.

I have knowledge of your works, that you are not cold or warm: it would be better if you were cold or warm.

For you say, I have wealth, and have got together goods and land, and have need of nothing; and you are not conscious of your sad and unhappy condition, that you are poor and blind and without clothing.

If you are wise you will get from me gold tested by fire, so that you may have true wealth; and white robes to put on, so that your shame may not be seen; and oil for your eyes, so that you may see.

And another horse came out, a red horse; and it was given to him who was seated on it to take peace from the earth, so that people might put one another to death: and there was given to him a great sword.

And a voice came to my ears, from the middle of the four beasts, saying, A measure of grain for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny: and see that you do no damage to the oil and the wine.

After this I saw four angels in their places at the four points of the earth, keeping back the four winds in their hands, so that there might be no moving of the wind on the earth, or on the sea, or on any tree.

After these things I saw a great army of people more than might be numbered, out of every nation and of all tribes and peoples and languages, taking their places before the high seat and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, and with branches in their hands,

And another angel came and took his place at the altar, having a gold vessel for burning perfume; and there was given to him much perfume, so that he might put it with the prayers of all the saints on the gold altar which was before the high seat.

And at the sounding of the fourth angel, a third part of the sun, and of the moon, and of the stars was made dark, so that there was no light for a third part of the day and of the night.

And the four angels were made free, who were ready for the hour and day and month and year, that they might put to death a third part of men.

And took his oath by him who is living for ever and ever, who made the heaven and the things in it, and the earth and the things in it, and the sea and the things in it, that there would be no more waiting:

These have the power to keep the heaven shut, so that there may be no rain in the days when they are prophets: and they have power over the waters to make them into blood, and to send every sort of disease on the earth as their pleasure is.

And in that hour there was a great earth-shock and a tenth part of the town came to destruction; and in the earth-shock seven thousand persons came to their end: and the rest were in fear, and gave glory to the God of heaven.

And his tail was pulling a third part of the stars of heaven down to the earth, and the dragon took his place before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when the birth had taken place he might put an end to her child.

And the woman went in flight to the waste land, where she has a place made ready by God, so that there they may give her food a thousand, two hundred and sixty days.

Be glad then, O heavens, and you who are in them. But there is trouble for the earth and the sea: because the Evil One has come down to you, being very angry, having the knowledge that he has but a short time.

And when the dragon saw that he was forced down to the earth, he made cruel attacks on the woman who gave birth to the male child.

And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, so that she might go in flight into the waste land, to her place, where she is given food for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the snake.

And the snake sent out of his mouth after the woman a river of water, so that she might be taken away by the stream.

And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and his voice was like that of a dragon.

And he had power to give breath to the image of the beast, so that words might come from the image of the beast, and that he might have all those who did not give worship to the image of the beast put to death.

So that no man might be able to do trade but he who has the mark, even the name of the beast or the number of his name.

And a voice from heaven came to my ears, saying, Put in writing, There is a blessing on the dead who from now on come to their end in the Lord: yes, says the Spirit, that they may have rest from their troubles; for their works go with them.

And a great voice out of the house of God came to my ears, saying to the seven angels, Go, and let that which is in the seven vessels of the wrath of God come down on the earth.

And the fourth let what was in his vessel come out on the sun; and power was given to it that men might be burned with fire.

And the sixth let what was in his vessel come out on the great river Euphrates; and it became dry, so that the way might be made ready for the kings from the east.

(See, I come as a thief. Happy is he who is watching and keeps his robes, so that he may not go unclothed, and his shame be seen.)

And there were flames and voices and thunders; and there was a great earth-shock so that never, from the time when men were on the earth, had there been so great an earth-shock, so full of power.

And one of the seven angels who had the seven vessels came and said to me, Come here, so that you may see the judging of the evil woman who is seated on the great waters;

The beast which you saw was, and is not; and is about to come up out of the great deep, and to go into destruction. And those who are on the earth, whose names have not been put in the book of life from the first, will be full of wonder when they see the beast, that he was, and is not, and still will be.

And another voice from heaven came to my ears, saying, Come out of her, my people, so that you may have no part in her sins and in her punishments.

So that you may take for your food the flesh of kings, and of captains, and of strong men, and of horses and of those who are seated on them, and the flesh of all men, free and unfree, small and great.

And put him into the great deep, and it was shut and locked over him, so that he might put the nations in error no longer, till the thousand years were ended: after this he will be let loose for a little time.

And he took the measure of its wall, one hundred and forty-four cubits, after the measure of a man, that is, of an angel.

In the middle of its street. And on this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, having twelve sorts of fruits, giving its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree give life to the nations.

A blessing on those whose robes are washed, so that they may have a right to the tree of life, and may go in by the doors into the town.
