I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, dear children, because you have known the Father. 14 I write to you, fathers, because you have known him who is from the beginning.

Jesus broke the chains of religion by dying on the cross for our wrongs and rising again to new life. Don’t focus on traditions, rules, or status quo. Follow Jesus, and let Him give you heart to love people.
