Like Him
when we see Him
Lesson IV
Text 1 John 3:2
1.
Beloved, now are we the
sons of God

And it doth not yet appear
what we shall be

But we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like
him

For we shall see him as he
is.

we shall be like him is when he
appears
The reason we shall be like
him, for we shall see him as he is
