Chapter overview (whole chapter)
The chapter opens with a greeting and a reminder that the true church is of God and not of men, emphasizing that believers are of God and the world is the world. It then explains that the world is of sin and cannot be loved, and that believers must not love the world but love one another as God has loved them.
