1 John 2:12-18

12I am writingG1125 to youG4771, little childrenG5040, becauseG3754 your sinsG266 have been forgivenG863G4771 throughG1223 HisG846 nameG3686.

13I am writingG1125 to youG4771, fathersG3962, becauseG3754 you knowG1097 Him whoG3588 is fromG575 the beginningG746.

I am writingG1125 to youG4771, young menG3495, becauseG3754 you have overcomeG3528 theG3588 evilG4190 one.1

I have writtenG1125 to youG4771, childrenG3813, becauseG3754 you knowG1097 theG3588 FatherG3962.

14I have writtenG1125 to youG4771, fathersG3962, becauseG3754 you knowG1097 Him whoG3588 is fromG575 the beginningG746.

I have writtenG1125 to youG4771, young menG3495, becauseG3754 you areG1510 strongG2478, andG2532 theG3588 wordG3056 of GodG2316 abidesG3306 inG1722 youG4771, andG2532 you have overcomeG3528 theG3588 evilG4190 one.

15Do notG3361 loveG25 theG3588 worldG2889 or anythingG3588 inG1722 theG3588 worldG2889. IfG1437 anyoneG5100 lovesG25 theG3588 worldG2889, theG3588 loveG26 of theG3588 FatherG3962 isG1510 notG3756 inG1722 himG846. 16ForG3754 allG3956 thatG3588 is inG1722 theG3588 worldG2889—theG3588 desiresG1939 of theG3588 fleshG4561, theG3588 desiresG1939 of theG3588 eyesG3788, andG2532 theG3588 prideG212 ofG3588 lifeG979—isG1510 notG3756 fromG1537 theG3588 FatherG3962 butG235 fromG1537 theG3588 worldG2889. 17TheG3588 worldG2889 is passing awayG3855, along with itsG846 desiresG1939; butG1161 whoeverG3588 doesG4160 theG3588 willG2307 of GodG2316 remainsG3306 foreverG1519G3588G165.

18ChildrenG3813, it isG1510 the lastG2078 hourG5610; andG2532 just asG2531 you have heardG191 thatG3754 the antichristG500 is comingG2064, soG2532 nowG3568 manyG4183 antichristsG500 have appearedG1096. This is howG3606 we knowG1097 it isG1510 the lastG2078 hourG5610.
