12 I write unto you, dear children, because your sins have been forgiven you, for the sake of his name:

13 I write unto you, fathers, because ye understand him who was from the beginning: I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I have written unto you, little children, because ye understand the Father:

14 I have written unto you, fathers, because ye understand him who was from the beginning: I have written you, young men, because ye are, strong, and the word of God, within you, abideth, and ye have overcome the wicked one.

15 Be not loving the world, nor yet the things that are in the world: if anyone be loving the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
