12 I’m writing to you new believers because your sins have been forgiven because of Yeshua authority. 13 I’m writing to you fathers because you have known the messiah from the beginning.[ref] 14 I wrote to you new believers because you have know the father. I wrote to you fathers because you have known the messiah from the beginning.[ref] I wrote to you young men because you are strong and God’s message lives in you and you have overcome the evil one.

15 Don’t be loving the world nor the things in the world. The father’s love does not live in anyone who loves the world 16 because everything that’s in the world, bodily desires and lusts and arrogant living, is not from the father but from the world. 17 And the world will come to an end along with the desire for it, but the person obeying God’s desires will continue to live.
