Beloved, I write not a new commandment to you, but the old commandment, which ye have had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning.

I have written to you, beloved children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name sake.

I write to you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write to you, little children, because ye have known the Father.

I have written to you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written to you young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.

Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that Antichrist cometh, so even now there are many Antichrists, whereby we know that it is the last time.

They went out from us, but they were not of us: for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest, that they were not all of us.

But ye have an anointing from the Holy one, and know all things.

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

These things have I written to you, concerning them that seduce you.

But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any should teach you, save as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie; and as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in them.

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

But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.

And every spirit which confesseth not Jesus Christ come in the flesh, is not of God: and this is that spirit of Antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and now already it is in the world.

Ye are of God, beloved children, and have overcome them; because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

And we have seen and testify, that the Father sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world.

Hereby is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, so are we in this world.

And this commandment have we from him, that he who loveth God, love his brother also.

These things have I written to you that believe on the name of the Son of God, that ye may know ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the Son of God.

And this is the confidence which we have in him, that if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us.

And if we know that he heareth us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we asked of him.

And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment as ye have heard from the beginning, that ye may walk in it.

This is the seducer and the antichrist. Look to yourselves, that we lose not the things we have wrought, but receive a full reward.

I have no greater joy than this, to hear that my children walk in the truth.

Who have testified of thy love before the church; whom if thou send forward on their journey after a godly sort, thou shalt do well.

I wrote to the church; but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the pre-eminence among them, receiveth us not.

Wo to them; for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Korah.

To execute judgment upon all, and to convict all the ungodly of them of all their ungodly deeds, which they have impiously committed, and of all the grievous things which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

on others have compassion with fear, hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

Behold he cometh with clouds, and every eye shall see him, and they who have pierced him: and all the tribes of the earth shall wail because of him.

And he that liveth and was dead, and behold I am alive for evermore, and have the keys of death and of Hades.

But I have against thee, that thou hast left thy first love.

Fear none of those things which thou art about to suffer: behold the devil is about to cast some of you into prison that ye may be tried, and ye shall have affliction ten days: Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee the crown of life.

But I have a few things against thee, that thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a stumbling-block before the sons of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit fornication.

But I have against thee, that thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, who callest herself a prophetess, and teacheth and seduceth my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to idols.

But I say to you, the rest that are at Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, who have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak, I will lay upon you no other burden.

But what ye have, hold fast till I come.

(And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken in pieces) as I also have received from my Father.

Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, which are ready to die; for I have not found thy works compleat before my God.

Yet thou hast a few names in Sardis, who have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: they are worthy.

I know thy works, (behold I have given before thee an opened door, none can shut it) that thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.

Behold I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie, behold, I will make them come and lie down before thy feet, and know that I have loved thee.

Because thou sayst, I am rich, and have inriched myself, and have need of nothing, and knowest not, that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked.

And he said to me, These are they who come out of great affliction, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple, and he that sitteth upon the throne shall have his tent over them.

And out of the smoke there went forth locusts upon the earth, and power was given them, as the scorpions of the earth have power:

And it was commanded them, not to hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only the men who have not the seal of God on their foreheads.

And they have tails like scorpions, and stings were in their tails; and their power is, to hurt men five months.

And they have over them a king, the angel of the bottomless pit: his name in the Hebrew is Abaddon, but in the Greek he hath the name Apollyon.

And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven, saying, Seal up the things which the seven thunders have uttered, and write them not.

These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophesying, and have power over the waters, to turn them into blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues as often as they will.

And when they shall have finished their testimony, the wild beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit, shall make war with them, and conquer them, and kill them.

And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went forth to make war with the rest of her seed who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus.

If any one have an ear, let him hear.

And the smoke of their torment ascendeth for ever and ever, and they have no rest day or night, who worship the wild beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink. They are worthy.

With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, who have not received the kingdom, but receive authority as kings one hour with the wild beast.

These have one mind, and give their power and authority to the wild beast.

For all nations have drank of the wine of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich, thro' the abundance of her delicacies.

For her sins have reached even to heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

And I fell before his feet to worship him: but he saith to me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellow-servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God. The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

Happy are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in by the gates into the city.

I Jesus have sent my angel to testify to you, to the churches, these things. I am the root and the off-spring of David, the bright, the morning-star. And the spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come.
