1 John 2:15; 1 John 2:24; 1 John 2:28

1 John 2:15

15 Do not love the world or anything that belongs to the world. If you love the world, you do not love the Father.

24 Be sure, then, to keep in your hearts the message you heard from the beginning. If you keep that message, then you will always live in union with the Son and the Father.

1 John 2:28

28 Yes, my children, remain in union with him, so that when he appears we may be full of courage and need not hide in shame from him on the Day he comes.
