Popular Bible Verses from 1 John 2

Share

Do not love the world or the things in the world. If you love the world, the love of the Father is not in you. These are the ways of the world: wanting to please our sinful selves, wanting the sinful things we see, and being too proud of what we have. None of these come from the Father, but all of them come from the world.

The world and everything that people want in it are passing away, but the person who does what God wants lives forever.

Whoever says that he lives in God must live as Jesus lived.

My dear children, I write this letter to you so you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have a helper in the presence of the Father—Jesus Christ, the One who does what is right.

Anyone who says, “I know God,” but does not obey God’s commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person.

We can be sure that we know God if we obey his commands.

Anyone who says, “I am in the light,” but hates a brother or sister, is still in the darkness.

Who is the liar? It is the person who does not accept Jesus as the Christ. This is the enemy of Christ: the person who does not accept the Father and his Son.

Whoever does not accept the Son does not have the Father. But whoever confesses the Son has the Father, too.
