[1] {holy mount}
Where the reference is to \\things\\, the meaning of "holy" or
"sanctified" is, simply, set apart for the use of God, or rendered sacred
by the divine presence.

[2] {whereunto}
That is, made more sure by fulfilment in part. Fulfilled prophecy is a
proof of inspiration because the Scripture predictions of future events
were uttered so long before the events transpired that no merely human
sagacity or foresight could have anticipated them, and these predictions
are so detailed, minute, and specific, as to exclude the possibility that
they were mere fortunate guesses. Hundreds of predictions concerning
Israel, the land of Canaan, Babylon, Assyria, Egypt, and numerous
personages--so ancient, so singular, so seemingly improbable, as well as
so detailed and definite that no mortal could have anticipated them--have
been fulfilled by the elements, and by men who were ignorant of them, or
who utterly disbelieved them, or who struggled with frantic desperation
to avoid their fulfilment. It is certain, therefore, that the Scriptures
which contain them are inspired. "Prophecy came not in olden time by the
will of man; but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy
Ghost"

Grace (imparted). Summary (see "Grace,"

grace is not only dispensationally a method of divine dealing in
salvation

SCOFIELD REFERENCE NOTES (1917 Edition)
The First Epistle General of JOHN
WRITER: The Apostle John, as unbroken tradition affirms, and as internal
evidence and comparison with the Gospel of John prove.
DATE: Probably A.D. 90
THEME: First John is a family letter from the Father to His "little
children" who are in the world. With the possible exception of
the Song of Solomon, it is the most intimate of the inspired
writings. The world is viewed as without. The sin of a believer
is treated as a child's offence against his Father, and is dealt
with as a family matter (1. 9; 2. 1). The moral government of
the universe is not in question. The child's sin as an offence
against the law had been met in the Cross, and "Jesus Christ
the righteous" is now his "Advocate with the Father." John's
Gospel leads across the threshold of the Father's house; his
first Epistle makes us at home there. A tender word is used for
"children," teknia, "born ones," or "bairns." Paul is occupied
with our public position as sons; John with our nearness as
born-ones of the Father.
First John is in two principal divisions.
I. The family with the Father, 1. 1-3. 24.
II. The family and the world, 4. 1-5. 21.
There is a secondary analysis in each division of which occurs
the phrase, "My little children," as follows:
(I.) Introductory, the incarnation, 1. 1, 2.
(II.) The little children and fellowship 1. 3-2. 14
(III.) The little children and secular and "religious" world
2. 15-28.
(IV.) How the little children may know each other, 2. 29-3. 10
(V.) How the little children must live together, 3. 11-24.
(VI.) Parenthetic: How the little children may know false
teachers, 4. 1-6.
(VII.) The little children assured and warned, 4. 7-5. 21.
