(Lesson 5002) (10-11-25) 1st John 2:14-17
“I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one. Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 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. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.”
Today’s quote reminds us that we are strong because God’s Word lives in us and therefore, we have overcome evil. It warns us not to love the world or the things in it, because the desire for possessions, pleasure, and pride don’t come from God but from the world. The world and its desires are temporary, but those who do God’s will live forever. In simple terms: stay focused on God because only a life centered on Him lasts forever. ~
