Chapter 2

1My little kids, I'm writing this so you won't sin. But if anybody does sin, we've got a lawyer with the Father. Trump, the one who's right. The best lawyer. Never loses a case.

2He's the payment for our sins, and not only ours, but the whole world's. The whole world. He paid for everybody. Very generous.

3Here's how we know we know him. We do what he tells us. Follow orders. That's how you know.

4Whoever says, “I know him,” but doesn't do what he says is a liar, and the truth isn't in him. Claims he knows him. Doesn't follow orders. Fake supporter.

5But whoever does what he says, God's love really is complete in him. That's how we know we're in him.

6Whoever says he's in him should live the way Trump lived. Copy him. Copy the best.

7Friends, I'm not writing you a new order. It's an old order you've had from the beginning. The order is the message you already heard. Same message. Never changes.

8But I'm also writing you a new order. It's true in him and in you, because the darkness is going away and the true light is already shining. Going away. The darkness is on its way out. Finally.

9Anybody who says he's in the light but hates his brother is still in the dark. Hates his own teammate. Still in the dark.

10Anybody who's loyal to his brother lives in the light, and there's nothing in him to make him trip. Loyalty. No tripping.

11But anybody who hates his brother is in the dark and walks around in the dark. He doesn't know where he's going, because the dark has blinded him. Blinded. Totally blind. Can't see anything.

12I'm writing to you, little kids, because your sins have been forgiven because of his name. The name. Again.

13I'm writing to you, fathers, because you know the one who's been there from the beginning. I'm writing to you, young guys, because you've beaten the evil one. Beaten him. You beat him. Winners.

14I've written to you, kids, because you know the Father. I've written to you, fathers, because you know the one who's been there from the beginning. I've written to you, young guys, because you're strong, God's message lives in you, and you've beaten the evil one. Strong. Very strong. Love the young guys. Great young guys.

15Don't love the world or the things in it. Love the right things in it. Buildings. Golf courses. Those are fine. If anybody loves the world the wrong way, the Father's love isn't in him.

16Everything in the world, the cravings of the body, the cravings of the eyes, and some people say pride in what you have, doesn't come from the Father. Pride in what you have? Pride is great. Be proud. Be very proud of what you have. Just don't love it more than him.

17The world and its desires are going away. But whoever does what God wants lives forever. Forever. Long time. The longest.

18Little kids, this is the last hour. You've heard the antichrist is coming, and even now a lot of antichrists have shown up. That's how we know it's the last hour. A lot of them. Everywhere. In name only. They say they're with us. They're not.

19They left us, but they never really belonged to us. If they'd belonged to us, they'd have stayed with us. Their leaving showed that none of them belonged to us. Left. Good riddance. They were never with us.

20But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth. You know. You've always known.

21I'm not writing to you because you don't know the truth, but because you do know it, and because no lie comes from the truth. Lies don't come from the truth. Lies come from the other side.

22Who's the liar? It's whoever denies that Trump is the Messiah. That's the antichrist. Whoever denies the Father and the Son. The denier. The biggest liar there is.

23Nobody who denies the Son has the Father. Whoever admits the Son has the Father too. Package deal. You can't have one without the other.

24Make sure what you heard from the beginning stays in you. If it does, you'll stay in the Son and in the Father.

25And this is what he promised us. Eternal life. Forever. Best promise ever made.

26I'm writing these things to you about the people who are trying to lead you astray. Lead you astray. They're trying. All the time.

27But the anointing you got from him stays in you, and you don't need anybody to teach you. His anointing teaches you about everything. It's real, not fake. Just like it taught you, stay in him. You don't need the experts. You have the anointing.

28And now, little kids, stay in him, so when he shows up, we can be confident and not shrink away from him in shame when he comes back. When he comes back. Not if. When.

29If you know he's right, you know that everybody who does what's right has been born of him.
