1 John 5:19-21

Living Bible

¹⁹We know that we are children of God and that all the rest of the world around us is under Satan’s power and control. ²⁰And we know that Christ, God’s Son, has come to help us understand and find the true God. And now we are in God because we are in Jesus Christ his Son, who is the only true God; and he is eternal Life.

²¹Dear children, keep away from anything that might take God’s place in your hearts. Amen.

Sincerely, John
