1 John 2:15-24
Holman Christian Standard Bible
A Warning about the World
15 Do not love the world(A) or the things that belong to[a] the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in him. 16 For everything that belongs to[b] the world—the lust of the flesh,(B) the lust of the eyes,(C) and the pride(D) in one’s lifestyle—is not from the Father, but is from the world. 17 And the world with its lust is passing away,(E) but the one who does God’s will(F) remains forever.(G)
The Last Hour
18 Children, it is the last hour.(H) And as you have heard, “Antichrist(I) is coming,” even now many antichrists have come. We know from this that it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us, but they did not belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us. However, they went out so that it might be made clear that none of them belongs to us.
20 But you have an anointing(J) from the Holy One,(K) and all of you have knowledge.[c] 21 I have not written to you because you don’t know the truth, but because you do know it, and because no lie comes from the truth. 22 Who is the liar, if not the one who denies that Jesus is the Messiah?(L) This one is the antichrist: the one who denies the Father and the Son. 23 No one who denies the Son can have the Father;(M) he who confesses the Son has the Father as well.(N)
Remaining with God
24 What you have heard from the beginning must remain in you. If what you have heard from the beginning remains in you, then you will remain in the Son(O) and in the Father.(P)

New International Version
On Not Loving the World
15 Do not love the world or anything in the world.(A) If anyone loves the world, love for the Father[a] is not in them.(B) 16 For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh,(C) the lust of the eyes,(D) and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. 17 The world and its desires pass away,(E) but whoever does the will of God(F) lives forever.
Warnings Against Denying the Son
18 Dear children, this is the last hour;(G) and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming,(H) even now many antichrists have come.(I) This is how we know it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us,(J) but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us.(K)
20 But you have an anointing(L) from the Holy One,(M) and all of you know the truth.[b](N) 21 I do not write to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it(O) and because no lie comes from the truth. 22 Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist—denying the Father and the Son.(P) 23 No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also.(Q)
24 As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning(R) remains in you. If it does, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father.(S)
