NASB | 1 John 3:2 Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 3:2 Beloved, we are [even here and] now children of God, and it is not yet made clear what we will be [after His coming]. We know that when He comes and is revealed, we will [as His children] be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is [in all His glory]. |

Bible Note: You're right, CDBJ, what we have in Christianity is a whole bunch of divisive doctrines that aren't directly taught in the scriptures - trinity, rapture, transubstantiantion, 7 Point Calvinism, Romans Road, 4 Spiritual Laws, original sin, the fall, etc. We form these doctrines and then try to find proof-texts to shore our man-made doctrines up with. We would do well to get back to what the scriptures actually say and mean than to be continually trying to perpetuate things that Jesus himself never taught. |
