APPEARED
No one who lives in Him keeps on sinning.
If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who does right has been born of Him.
And now, dear children, continue in Him, so that when He appears we may be confident and unashamed before Him at His coming.
But when He appears we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.
So I will always remind you of these things, even though you know them and are firmly established in the truth you now have.
and you will reveive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Through these He has given us His very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.
