1 JOHN 2:17 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.”
And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever — the eschatological perspective reveals the world's transience (parago). The will of God (thelema theos) is eternal whereas worldly desires perish. Obedience to God's will ensures endurance beyond the world's dissolution.
