John Wesley's Notes

<< 1 John 5:20

2 John 1:1 >>

Keep yourselves from idols - From all worship of false gods, from all worship of images or of any creature, and from every inward idol; from loving, desiring, fearing anything more than God. Seek all help and defence from evil, all happiness in the true God alone.

<< 1 John 5:20
