1 John 2:15-17 & 24 – 27

Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 

For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 

And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.

I am writing these things to warn you about those who want to lead you astray. 

But you have received the Holy Spirit, and he lives within you, so you don’t need anyone to teach you what is true. For the Spirit teaches you everything you need to know, and what he teaches is true—it is not a lie. So just as he has taught you, remain in fellowship with Christ.


  • The Holy Spirit gives believers the ability to understand and recognize spiritual truth. Those who have the Spirit know the truth about the Father and the Son and can detect what does not accord with the truth of the apostles’ teachings.
  • The world is a moral system that is under the influence of Satan and is opposed to God and to Christ’s Kingdom on earth. The world appeals to people’s fleshly desires and thereby diverts them from God. Those who are from this world need God to redeem them from it.
