1 John 2:13-15
New Matthew Bible
13 I write to you fathers because you know him who was from the beginning. I write to you young men because you have overcome the wicked one. I write to you little children because you know the Father. 14 I write to you fathers because you know him who was from the beginning. I write to you young men because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome that wicked one.
15 See that you love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
