1 John 3:1-2
1SeeG3708 12howG4217 greatG4217 a loveG26 the FatherG3962 has bestowedG1325 on us, that we would be calledG2564 3childrenG5043 of GodG2316; and such we are. For thisG3778 reasonG1223 the worldG2889 does not knowG1097 us, becauseG3754 4it did not knowG1097 Him.
25BelovedG27, nowG3568 we are 6childrenG5043 of GodG2316, and 7it has not appearedG5319 as yetG3768 whatG5101 we will be. We knowG3609 that whenG1437 He 8appearsG5319, we will be 9likeG3664 Him, becauseG3754 we will 10seeG3708 Him justG2531 as He is.
