12 I am writing to you, dear children, because for His sake your sins are forgiven you.
13 I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who has existed from the very beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the Evil one. I have written to you, children, because you know the Father.
14 I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has existed from the very beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong and God's Message still has a place in your hearts, and you have overcome the Evil one.
15 Do not love the world, nor the things in the world. If any one loves the world, there is no love in his heart for the Father.
