1 John 2:15-17

Contemporary English Version

¹⁵ Don't love the world or anything that belongs to the world. If you love the world, you cannot love the Father. ¹⁶ Our foolish pride comes from this world, and so do our selfish desires and our desire to have everything we see. None of this comes from the Father. ¹⁷ The world and the desires it causes are disappearing. But if we obey God, we will live forever.
