1 JOHN 5:19 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.”
We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one — the contrast (de) between believers' divine origin and the world's captivity is absolute. The world (holos kosmos) remains under the evil one's dominion (keitai en tō poneró). Yet believers escape this power through Christ.
