1 John 2:16-18

The Voice

¹⁶ All the things the world can offer to you—the allure of pleasure, the passion to have things, and the pompous sense of superiority—do not come from the Father. These are the rotten fruits of this world. ¹⁷ This corrupt world is already wasting away, as are its selfish desires. But the person really doing God’s will—that person will never cease to be.

¹⁸ My children, this is the final hour. You have heard that the antiChrist, the greatest enemy to His kingdom, is coming, but in fact, many antiChrists are already here. This development tells us how late it really is.
