You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. They are from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world, and the world listens to them. We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood.
You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them,
John 16:33
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." (see all chapter 16)
Romans 8:37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. (see all chapter 8)
1 John 5:3-4 In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. (see verses 1-12)
Revelation 2:7 "Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God." (see verses 1-7)
Revelation 2:11 "Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who is victorious will not be hurt at all by the second death." (see verses 8-11)
Revelation 2:17 "Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give some of the hidden manna. I will also give that person a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to the one who receives it." (see verses 12-17)
Revelation 2:26-29 "To the one who is victorious and does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations--that one 'will rule them with an iron scepter and will dash them to pieces like pottery' (Psalm 2:9)--just as I have received authority from my Father. I will also give that one the morning star. Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches." (see verses 18-29)
