I AM AN OVERCOMER
We are not alone! We are overcomers!
Overcoming is on the inside of You!
World (kosmos) =
-
The world system, order, arrangement (the way the world is and works)
-
The world itself (the planet, life in this world)
-
The inhabitants of the world (people, the human family)
-
The ungodly multitude (the whole mass of men who are alienated from God and hostile to the cause of Christ)
-
World affairs (all earthly goods, endowments, riches, advantages, pleasures)
God has made us overcomers over all of this!

We are given keys to overcoming Satan in 1 John.
