15. Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
17. And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that does the will of God abides forever.
18. Little children, it is the last time: and as you have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; by which we know that it is the last time.
19. They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
20. But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.
21. I have not written unto you because you know not the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
22. Who is a liar but he that denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denies the Father and the Son.
23. Whosoever denies the Son, the same has not the Father: [but] he that confesses the Son has the Father also.
24. Let that therefore abide in you, which you have heard from the beginning. If that which you have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, you also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.
25. And this is the promise that he has promised us, even eternal life.
