Brothers, I do not write a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the Word which you heard from the beginning.
as the native among you, so shall be the alien who is staying with you; and you shall love him as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt; I am Jehovah your God.
Therefore, what you heard from the beginning, let it abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you will abide both in the Son and in the Father.
Beloved ones, now we are the children of God, and it was not yet revealed what we shall be. But we know that if He is made visible to us, we shall be like Him, because we shall see Him as He is.
