The First Epistle General of John
Chapter 2:28-29
Geneva Bible Translation Ed. 1599
28 And now, little children, abide in him, that when he shall appear, we may be bold, and not be ashamed before him, at his coming. (a)
29 If ye know that he is righteous, know ye that he which doeth righteously, is born of him.
John refers to the visible and final return of Christ at the end of the age. At that time Christ will come as the Judge, but those who “abide in” Him by continuing to trust in the gospel message need have no fear of condemnation - Source Reformation Study Bible
(a) Read 1 Thessalonians 4:16; 1 Corinthians 15:52
