They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world." ¹⁷ "If any one wills to do God's will he shall know concerning my teaching, whether it is from God, or I speak my own authority. Dedicate them in thy truth; thy word is truth." ¹⁸ "The man who speaks on his own authority is always seeking his own glory. But one who is eager for the glory of Him who sent him, he is true, and therefore is nothing false about him.

³⁸ "I am declaring what I have seen with the Father, and you are acting as you have learned from your father."

⁹ Now Philip had four unmarried daughters who prophesied, ¹⁰ and while we remained there many days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea. ¹¹ He came to us, and taking Paul's girdle, he bound his own feet and hands, saying, "Thus says the Holy Spirit, 'so will the Jews at Jerusalem bind the owner of this girdle, and deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.'"

²⁴ "'Fear not, Paul; you must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you the lives of all who are sailing with you.'

¹⁰ Yet God has unveiled them to us by his Spirit. For the Spirit fathoms everything, even the abysmal depths of God. ¹¹ For what man knows the depths of man except the man's own inner Spirit?

⁷ And to each one of us was grace given according to the measure of the munificence of Christ. ⁸ Thus it is said, When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive and gave gifts to men. ⁹ Now surely this "he ascended" implies that he also descended into the lower part of the earth. ¹⁰ He who descended is he who ascended above the highest heaven, that he might fill the universe. ¹¹ It is he who made some men apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, ¹² in order to equip the saints for the work of serving, for the building up of the Body of Christ— ¹³ till we all come in the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to the maturity of manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ. ¹⁴ So we shall no longer be children, tossed up and down, and blown about by every wind of teaching, tricked by the craft of men in the snares of misleading error; ¹⁵ but holding the truth in love we shall grow up in every part into him who is our Head, even Christ.

³ Let no one deceive you by any means. For it will not come until after the Great Apostasy, and the revealing of the Man of Sin, the son of perdition,

¹² so that they all should be condemned, who are faithless to the truth, but take pleasure in evil.

¹ Now the Spirit distinctly declares that in latter days there will be some who will fall away from the faith, by listening to spirits of error, and to teachings of demons ² speaking lies in hypocrisy. These are men whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron, ³ who discourage marriage, and enjoin abstinence from foods which God created to be received with thankfulness, by those who believe, and have a clear knowledge of the truth.

¹ But of this be sure. In the last days grievous times will come. ² For men will be selfish, mercenary, boastful, haughty, blasphemous, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, irreligious, ³ without natural affection, merciless, slanderous, dissolute, and brutal. ⁴ They will hate goodness, they will be treacherous, reckless, blinded with pride, lovers of pleasure, rather than lovers of God. ⁵ For although they keep up the outward form of religion, they deny its power.

¹ But there were false prophets, too, among the people, just as among you also there will be false teachers. These will secretly bring in destructive sects, denying even the Master who bought them, and bringing swift ruin upon themselves. ² Then there will be many who will follow their immorality, because of whom the Way of the Truth will be maligned. ³ In their covetousness, with cunning words, they will make merchandise of you; those whose doom has not been idle from of old, and whose destruction has not been slumbering. ⁴ For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus, and committed them to chains of darkness, and reserved them for judgment; ⁵ if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon an ungodly world; ⁶ if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and reduced them to ashes, thus holding them up as a warning to all who would live ungodly; ⁷ and he delivered righteous Lot who was worn out by the lascivious life of the wicked ⁸ (for that righteous man, living among them, tormented his righteous soul in seeing and hearing, day after day, their lawless deeds), ⁹ then be sure that the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to keep the wicked (who are even now enduring punishment) for the "Day of Judgment"; ¹⁰ especially those who spend their lives following the flesh in the lust of defilement, and in despising all authority. Audacious and willful, they feel no awe in railing against dignities; ¹¹ even where angels, though surpassing them in strength and might, do not bring a railing judgment against them before the Lord. ¹² But these men, like irrational creatures, mere animals, born to be taken and destroyed, continually rail about matters of which they know nothing. In their corruption they will surely be destroyed, ¹³ suffering wrong as the wage of wrong which they have done. These are men who count it pleasure to carouse in open daylight; they are spots and blemishes reveling in their deceit, even while they are feasting with you. ¹⁴ They have eyes full of harlots, eyes that cannot stop sinning. They entice unsteady souls. Their heart is trained in greed. They are an accursed generation. ¹⁵ They have forsaken the right way; they have lost their way, and followed the road of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved the wages of wrong-doing. ¹⁶ He was, however, rebuked for his own transgression; a dumb ass spoke with a man's voice, and stopped the madness of the prophet. ¹⁷ Such men are like waterless springs, or mists storm-driven; for them the blackness of darkness has been reserved. ¹⁸ For speaking great swelling words of vanity, they entangle, by their lasciviousness, in the lusts of the flesh, those who are just about to escape from the men that live in misconduct. ¹⁹ They promise them liberty, while they themselves are slaves of rottenness! (For indeed a man is the slave of anything which masters him.) ²⁰ For if, after having escaped the pollutions of the world, through the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, men are again entangled in them and overpowered, their last state is become worse than their first. ²¹ Indeed it would have been better for them not to have known the Way of Righteousness, than, after knowing it, to turn back from the holy command delivered to them. ²² In their case it has happened according to the true proverb, The dog returns again to his own vomit, and The sow, after washing, to her wallowing in the mire.

²⁰ Now you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.

²⁷ As to you, the unction you received from him remains ever in you, and you need no teaching from any one. But since his unction teaches you concerning all things and is true, and is no lie, abide continually in him, as it has taught you to do.

⁶ But you are of God. He who is beginning to know God listens to us; he who is not of God does not listen to us. By this we may distinguish the spirit of truth from the spirit of error.

¹ The unveiling apocalypse of Jesus Christ which God gave him to show to his slaves the things which must soon come to pass; and he sent and made it known by his angel to his slave John.

¹⁹ So write the things which you saw, and the things which are, and the things that will come to pass hereafter.

¹ And I saw, when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four Living Creatures say, with a voice like thunder, "Come!" ² And I saw, and lo, a white horse, and he who sat on him had a bow; and there was given him a crown; and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. ³ And when he opened the second seal, I heard the second Living Creature say, "Come!" ⁴ And another horse come forth, a red horse. To him who sat on it, it was allowed to take peace from the earth, and to cause men to kill one another; and a great sword was given to him. ⁵ And when he opened the third seal, I heard the third Living Creature say, "Come!" And I saw, and lo, a black horse! He who sat on him had a balance in his hand. ⁶ And I heard the semblance of a voice in the midst of the four Living Creatures, saying. "A quart of wheat for a shilling, and three quarts of barley for a shilling; but do not harm the oil and the wine." ⁷ And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth Living Creature calling, "Come!" ⁸ So I liked, and lo, a pale horse; and he who sat on him was named Death; and Hades was following after him. To them was given authority over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with the sword, and with famine, and with death, and with the wild beasts of the earth. ⁹ And when he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they bore. ¹⁰ And with a loud voice they cried, saying, "O Master, holy and true, How long dost thou not judge And avenge our blood On those who dwell on the earth?" ¹¹ And there was given to each one of them a white robe; and they were told that they should rest for yet a little time, until the number should be completed by their fellow slaves and their brethren who were about to be put to death as they had been. ¹² And I looked when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black, like sackcloth, and the full moon became like blood; ¹³ and the stars of the sky fell to earth, as a fig tree shaken by a gale drops its unripe figs. ¹⁴ And the sky parted asunder like a rolled-up scroll; and every mountain and island was moved out of its place; ¹⁵ and the kings of the earth, and the princes, and the generals, the rich and the mighty, both slaves and freemen, every one of them hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains. ¹⁶ And they began to say to the mountains and to the rocks. "Fall upon us and hide us From the face of him who is seated upon the throne, And from the wrath of the Lamb; ¹⁷ For the Great Day of their wrath has come, And who is able to stand?"

¹ And he showed me the river of the Water of Life, clear as crystal, Flowing out from the throne of God, and of the Lamb, ² In the middle of the broad street of the City. On each side of the river was a Tree of Life, Bearing twelve kinds of fruit, Each month yielding its own fruit. And the leaves of the tree Were for the healing of the nations. ³ And there will be no more curse But in it will be the throne of God and of the Lamb. ⁴ And his slaves will serve and worship him. They will see his face. His name will be on their foreheads. ⁵ Night will be no more. They will need no lamplight nor sunlight, Because the Lord God will give them light; And they will reign forever and ever. ⁶ Then he said to me. "These words may be trusted, and are true. the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent his angel to show his slaves what must soon take place. ⁷ "And behold, I am coming quickly. Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book." ⁸ And I, John, am he who heard and saw these things. And after I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me. ⁹ But he said to me. "See thou do it not. I am only a fellow slave with you and your brothers, the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this Book. "WORSHIP GOD!" ¹⁰ And he said to me, "Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book; for the crisis is near. ¹¹ He who is wicked, let him be wicked still; He who is filthy, let him be filthy still; He who is righteous, lit him practise righteousness still; And he who is holy, let him be made holy still. ¹² Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, To give to each man what his actions merit. ¹³ I am the Alpha and the Omega, The First and the Last, The Beginning and the End. ¹⁴ "Blessed are they who wash their robes, so that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in by the gates into the City. ¹⁵ Without are the dogs, the sorcerers, the immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and all who live and make a lie. ¹⁶ "I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the root and offspring of David, the bright and morning Star. ¹⁷ "And the Spirit and the Bride say 'Come!' And let him who hears, say 'Come!' And let him who thirsts, come; And whoever wills, let him take the Water of Life freely." ¹⁸ I testify to every man who hears the words of the prophecy of this book. If any man shall add to them, God will add to him the plagues which are written in this book; ¹⁹ and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the Tree of Life, and in the Holy City, about which this book is written. ²⁰ He who testifies this says, "Yea, I am coming quickly." Amen! Come, Lord Jesus! ²¹ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with the saints!
