When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is the one on whom seed was sown beside the road.
and the field is the world; and as for the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the tares are the sons of the evil one;
I do not ask You to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the evil one.
in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen and protect you from the evil one.
I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I have written to you, children, because you know the Father.
I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one.
not as Cain, who was of the evil one and slew his brother. And for what reason did he slay him? Because his deeds were evil, and his brother’s were righteous.
We know that no one who is born of God sins; but He who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him.
We know that we are of God, and that the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
