1 John 2:17-19

The Voice

¹⁷ This corrupt world is already wasting away, as are its selfish desires. But the person really doing God’s will—that person will never cease to be.

¹⁸ My children, this is the final hour. You have heard that the antiChrist, the greatest enemy to His kingdom, is coming, but in fact, many antiChrists are already here. This development tells us how late it really is. ¹⁹ A group has left us, but they were not part of our family. If they were truly our brothers and sisters, they would have remained for the duration with us. When they left, they made it ever so obvious that they were not part of us.
